Guest guest Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 I think you are right. It's something that I'd really be interested in doing now. I got hooked into it when I used to live all the way on the other side of the state where there were a few decent choices. So now the problem is not only finding someone in my area to train with, but finding someone who is good.....just a matter of how far I want to travel and if they are worth it. Right now I'm picturing you dancing like a cobra, flowing like a dragon...interesting! Thanks!
