I practice Aikido (Manseikan Aikido - based mostly in Kyushu) and Arnis/Kali (I started w/ Grandmaster Navales but am more or less developing my own style now)
Im a brazilian jiu-jitsu purple belt. Ive been practicing bjj for ten years but due to the fact that I joined the army Im unable to keep training this year cause I barely have any free time. I hope to get back to the mats next year when I leave the army. My brother is also a bjj practitioner and trains with Lucas Lepri (bjj black belt MW champion)

Hey guys, i'm currently in a MMA class (we go over all sorts of arts and try to meld it into one. It is mainly Judo, Jiujitsu and Shodokan Karate) also in a BJJ class taught by a Henzo Gracie black belt and Finally in a Judo class. I'm a white belt in all of them, but hopefully will soon be promoted in Judo and my MMA. Edit: To the guy who posted before me, what are those two arts?
