Its ok because it's all taken in good humour, and given that the head of our association is based in the South, if he didn't like it he would stop it, or kick us out...

yea. sori i haven't be able to come on line lately i got exams and won't be able to come on line much either.
i hate my father right now - dads said that i wasn't allowed to train from now on till the end of my exams at all. thats like a month

but aernt martial arts supposed to help both body and mind?

yea martial arts are mi life. i thought that he would understand that but obviously not!! i think mi mother told him to say that to me. he's like a dog - follows every dame thing she says

well i wish the best for you... keep your skills sharp now. 🙁

oh yeah btw can somone list me some martial art sites?

Here's a few I've found useful -

www.karatekorner.com/messageboard is quite good.
www.aikiweb.com has loads of useful stuff on it
www.artoftheninja.com has a good weapons section
www.taiji.de very good tai chi website
www.wonder-okinawa.jp excellent for traditional Okinawan karate
www.jujitsu.org.il/english/techniques.asp
www.dimmak.net

The best thing though is to search through google there are thousands of website out there offering all sorts of wierd and wonderful stuff

yea there are two good search engines. ones www.google.com and the other one is www.ask.com
they're both really good and will give you heaps of informtion. for the 'ask' one you just type in a question and it will answer it or give you web sites to check out about it

...ok im too lazy to get them myself...sue me.😐

I busted my left knee back in May at my TKD school and it's been acting up ever since. Any suggestions on how to strengthen it?

ummm ok well i've hurt my ankle before and my knee. what i did was when i had finsihed trining after a night. i would come home and ice it and then put deep heat (weat bag) on it 10 minutes for each like 3 times. make sure that you stretch before you train and after you train. warm it up prop before you train. also start to do some stretching at it at home - start off gently with some pressure etc and work the strength up. if the pain persists see your local GP or thyso

When you say busted do you mean you popped the knee cap? This probably the most common type of knee injury. The usual problems following this kind of injury is painful clicking and occassional re-misplacment.
Anyhow spidergrl's right you really need to see a physio therapist they will be able to give you exercises to strengthen the muscles, tendons and ligaments that support the knee.
