Style, if one is studied: Mixed Martial Arts / Karate

Rank: White [only went for a year and a half, then had to stop for monetary reasons]

Your interest in martial arts: The arts themselves as an art form have interested me for quite some time. As for fighting, I can't deny my warrior's spirit, and the desire for a good match, though I'm more of a peaceful person.

Anything else you'd like to add: Though I couldn't continue attending classes regularly as I did originally, I continued to train myself based on what I had studied while watching the others in the school; then combined that knoweledge with my full year of studying anatomy and phisiology at college to learn of all of the weakpoints on the human body. It was through this that I have been steadily improving.
