I study a hardstyle martial art called Zen Karate Do. It's a blended form started by Canadian Sensei Olaf Simon in the 1950's and incorporates Shotokan Karate, Tae Kwon Do, Kickboxing and other martial arts to lesser degrees. Together they all create a very modern approach to self defense, fitness, discipline and competition. The variety also makes it very well rounded, practical and fun. I study under a 4th degree blackbelt named Lyle Cheney. http://www.cheneykarate.com/

About My Studies I started training in August 1999 and through obsessiveness made it to a green belt level by December 2000. I trained about 4 days a week and took some private lessons. I also competed in several tournaments with great success. While I was a yellow belt, I earned 7 trophies in 7 events at 4 tournaments. I moved to the Atlanta Georgia in December of 2000 and thought I would find a good school there. Boy was I wrong. In the entire time I lived there, I found 3 schools that seemed to take their art seriously while the rest were just yuppy daycare belt factories. I wasn't able to attend any of the good schools for one reason or another so I took up weight lifting and cardio to fill the void. I finally moved back to Canada in 2008 and went back to my original Dojo. I have no plans on moving this time. Karate Tournaments
