I am new to the game and I have been astonished as to the number of different styles there are. I would like input from other people to learn about other styles that people are involved in. I personally am studying Kar-Do-Jitsu Ryu, which I'm sure even other martial artists haven't heard about. This style was founded just a generation ago by Shihan Manniel, a New York City policeman. My instructor's instructor, whom I see often, is Buddy Amato, the youngest and highest ranking master in the world. Our style revolves around self defense and forms are learned in the upper belts. I would especially be interested in hearing if anyone else out there has ever even heard of Kar-Do- Jitsu- Ryu or Buddy Amato. ------------------------------------------------------------ From: Scott Thompson Who is at: ihnp4!hoqam!rst Who boasts: 1)Fluency in English. 2) Prehensile hands. ------------------------------------------------------------ "For every hundred Sinners there's one Saint.
