    Default Hello From Ohio

    Hi everyone! I am from Martins Ferry, Ohio which is directly across the Ohio River from Wheeling, West Virginia.

    I am a fairly new practitioner to the martial arts which I have found to love and enjoy very much! My system is United Martial Arts which is based from Tang Soo Do and The Chuck Norris System so it is composed of several different styles! Since there are so many styles involved, I hope to learn a lot from each of you since it is very difficult to reference my my system.

    Even though I am new to the arts, I will try to return the favor and help you guys as much as I can.

    Hope to learn much and have tons of fun on here! Looking forward to getting to know you all!!

    Mr. Norris learned Tang Soo Do while serving in the military. He incorporated many other styles and personal aspects into the system and his system, Chun Kuk Do was formed!!!

    My instructor and Mr. Norris developed a friendship several, several years ago when they were both in their prime, Mr. Norris is actually the Godfather to his children. They in turn developed my system and training organization - The United Martial Arts Association!!

    Welcome to the forum, hope you enjoy. I knew Chuck and Aaron, back in the day. He has a good system and still works with the Machado brothers.
