Most People Start Martial Arts Because They Got Beat Up

Why did you start martial arts?

Belton Lubas started because he got beat up for loving dancing. What is your origin story?

My Dad lost a testicle in a beat down. He became a third-degree black belt in Wun Hop Kuen Do. It also made him feel cavalier enough to do things that led to my conception, because he was -1 teste.

I was raised into it. My sensei was a 7th degree black belt who judged at the Atlanta Olympics. His daughter was my babysitter. I remember being about 3 years old when my Dad started training me. On a side note, dance is perfect for martial arts, rhythm, timing, footwork, cadence, distance...Bruce Lee studied dance as well.

Only 6 words in the thumbnail and one is wrong. 😀

Please clarify your point about the opponent mimicking your footwork vs you lulling him in with your relaxed disposition.

I saw Enter The Dragon and The Karate Kid, in the 80s.

Then decide i wanted to be the best around.

My dad started me in Martial Arts when i was 3 years old, i'm almost 44 and the reason i went is because he also practiced and he teached Judo and Karate., so, yeah.
Bullied ? nah, i was the bully of bullies :)
