    I have a brown belt in Taekwondo and a green belt in Shotokan Karate. I took professional boxing lessons for about 7 months and trained under a professional ex Muay Thai Kickboxer for around a year and a half. I've had about maybe 20 Aikido classes and several Jeet Kune Do Classes as well (although I swear it was Wing Chun). I did all this before I found out about Jiu JItsu and gave up all of that for Jiu Jitsu back in February of this year. Focusing on Jiu Jitsu is all that matters now.

    Don,
    I couldn't help but notice you have a team paragon listing. Who are you training under? I trained at Paragon when I was stationed in Corpus Christi, TX.

    I would like to continue training Aikido, I think it complements Jiu-Jitsu perfectly even though it probably isn't the best in regards to self defense. Roy Dean and Marcio Feitosa have DVDs combining the 2 I believe.

    I have trained Aikido quite a bit. I think the meaning is good. But man the techniques are SO unrealistic. I admit you can wrist throw me across the room if I let you. You also can trap my punch and sling me to the moon if I punch slow. However If I really bring it to you none of that stuff is gonna work.

    - Mondays: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Judo
    - Tuesdays: 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu*
    - Wednesdays: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
    - Thursdays: 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu* + Judo
    - Fridays: Muay Thai
    - Saturdays: La Boxe Française-Savate

    *Until last week it was still English Boxing or Shoot Boxing or Shoot Wrestling depending what you arranged with your trainingpartners.
