Best of Luck mate. Tip- go for a long, slow swim the night before it'll wear you out and help you sleep (I always have difficulty sleeping before martial arts competitions... pre-emptive adrenaline and as a result feel knackered the next day). Morning of the fight eat a banana very slowly over about 1/2 an hour one hour before the fight, drinking water after each mouthfull. It'll help you maintain stamina once you start fighting.
Let us know how you get on.

So that's what they teach you at akido, you viscious bastard?
My ex (who does judo, self defense & juijitsu as well as having done Kickboxing and Tai Chi in the past) is fighting some Akido folks next week.

ceri... its Budo Taijutsu i do - a non competitive art composing of 9 traditional Japanese Ryu including weapons, bonebreaking, jutaijustsu, unarmed and many other things...
Incidently Aikido was derived from the same roots as one of the schools.

nbo tournaments mate, as its non competitive. as for gradings.... there is a grading system... certain things must be known before advancing ahead, but generally its done through continual assesment.. like the old days.. as opposed to a pressured in-front-of-the--class demopnstration or someting
Check it out on the web.. "Bujinkan Budo Taijustu" "Hall of the Warror God - Body Art"

I recommend using the Bonesaw taunt before fighting, 'you're going noooooooowhere!!!' and maybe throw in the word 'asshole' at the end too :P

Hahaha! I was into kickboxing too when I was a kid, but I came to realize there were funnier sports to be involved in, with a lot lesser risk for not being able to sit by the computer because of a black eye... Anyways... best of luck! :)

Far East Monkey - I know the boxer you are talking about - very famous and successful transvestite fighter.. (or "new half" as they are called in Japan).
Actually I went and trained in Thailand for a while, and that boxer (I forget his/her name) was from the same camp where I was training.. But she was never there at the same time as me...

Do you have special moves in kickboxing like Streetfighter? Like do you charge up and then bust out a shinpuu-hadoken for a hyper analo finish?

That has to be the most annoying question to ask a martial artist. Right after, "can you kill people with your bare hands?" :P

don't you watch seinfeld or something? ;-) Tolstoy is a famous writer!
Elaine: Oh! Don't you know what this means, it's like working with Tolstoy!
Jerry: Hey ya know what I read the most unbelievable thing about Tolstoy the other day, did you know the original title for "War and Peace" was
"War--What Is It Good For?"!
Elaine: Ha ha.
Jerry: No, no.. I'm not kidding Elaine it's true, his mistress didn't like the title and insisted him change it to "War and Peace"!
Elaine: But it's a line from that song!
Jerry: That's were they got it from!
Elaine: Really?
Jerry: I'm not joking!
Oh, and goodluck to you tokyojo!
