Default Steve, are you into Mixed Martial Arts?

Just curious as I know you do Tae Kwon Do.

I'm not Steve and you might not care, but I started capoeira in June and it rocks — and I totally suck at pretty much anything remotely sportesque. Thus, I also suck at capoeira (I got kicked in the head last week...), but I've never been so excited about a sport, ever. Highly, highly recommended.

I do care

Congrats to you for not only getting into something new but something that you're not immediately gifted at. And as for Capoeira, it can be a lot of fun. I once walked in on a Capoeira class and the number of hot women in there was astounding.

Right now I am doing boxing and Thai Boxing. Have you ever tried Muay Thai?

Yes, hot women, tall gangly men (who have their charms), and lots of tattoos! I fall into none of those categories. =) (cute, yes. hot, not so much...) Being a large-motor coordination-challenged lass, I tend to avoid sports, so no — no Thai Boxing for me. But, I'm looking to moving out of the US (nothing against the US; I just like the challenge of being a foreigner), so if I end up in Thailand and there's no capoeira, I may just look into it. Since I am a musician, the whole singing/clapping/percussing part of capoeira is what sucked me in: a "gym class" with actual music making? I'm so there...

Are you a man or a woman? Andrea or Andre?

As long as you found something that you enjoy, that's all that matters. Where do you train at?

Steve used to study Kempo. I'm not sure if he still does or what he may be studying now.

Interesting. I studied that as well for a bit. Thanks.

why? are you going to treat me differently depending on the answer? even andrea is a boy's name in many countries; a girl's in many others. i invite you to peruse my website (in the signature; if you read music, there's lots of goodies...), where you can further ponder my gender. (i'm just giving you a hard time for the heck of it. i'm not offended or upset or anything...)

It's possible. It's just that I originally thought you were a guy "Andre" and then realized you might be a woman.

There are so many good places to train in New York. I plan to move out there or to Miami soon.
