Hi Fellow Judokas!

Nice to meet you guys!
I'm new here and let me introduce myself.
I'm Erika and I'm 19/f. Currently I'm living in South Korea and I've been living here since 2001.
I'm also half Korean. I began Judo here and have been doing Judo for 4 years. I'm a 2nd degree black belt in Judo and Tae Kwon Do.
I compete here which I won a few competitions. I am in love with Judo and I think it is the right martial arts for me. I am planning on joining the
military and learn MMA in the states and I think Judo would help me with that. Anyways I'm glad to be part of this and I would be posting some videos of my competitions soon!

Why thank you sir.

I see you are biding your time choosing your pic, are you waiting for the wedding photos to come through?

trying to find one I like, really. I've narrowed it down to a few, and have considered using a wedding photo. I'm just having a hard time getting one that fits in the rather stringent requirements while still looking good.

So when they ship you to Camp Pendleton or MCAS Miramar you can join our club or one of our satellite programs. Johnny G would train you free for a year if you would just teach his fiance how to shop at the Korean market and brew up a proper bowl of yukgaejang or kimchijjige.

Welcome Erika

I'm actually joining the Navy haha. And that would be cool I know how to make kimchijige but it is really hard to make yukgaejang. (:

Plenty of sailors ... especially corpsmen ... around Pendleton ... but I know what you mean. If you end up at San Diego or thereabouts you can check in with Bruce Knight at NAS North Island.
