i am starting tae kwon do back, but i always get late and just for time for vale tudo classes, a brazilian martial art, it is really cool, if you want to whip some asses i advice you that, they want to make a vale tudo tournamet locally but it is almost impossible, full conatct fighters wnat to fight other full contact fighters only, karate with karate, tae kwon do with tae kwon do, only ju jitsu guys dare, and even them are not fully convinced, the problem is that when you take the fight to a terrain they do not know, and vale tudo is very complete, for example a tae kwon do guy does not how to fight on the ground or any grappling technique, so as long as they are standing on their feets they are cool but when you take em to the ground they are screwed, so cool hehehehe
