I am a beginner martial artist with limited experience. I love Tai-Chi, but want to supplement it with a hard style like Judo or Muay Thai. A good friend of mine who has been involved in the martial arts for many years (Kenpo) says that I should stick to one for a few years and at least attain a brown belt in one art first. What do you think?

I have a friend that I have known for about a year and a half. We both do TaeKwonDo together. And I just realized that I think I like him. The only thing is that he is two years younger than me. I’m in 10th and he is in 8th. I am also a higher rank then him. He is a brown belt and I am a 1st degree level 3 black belt. And there is NO WAY that I am going to tell him that I like him, because last time I told a guy that I liked him he didn’t like me back and it was just awkward. What should I do?

ive been taking taekwondo for a year this month. im about to test for brown belt. i took a week off cause its just getting tiring and not as much fun anymore..my sis NEVER goes. about once every 2 weeks for her. i coach on saturdays which will look GREAT on my resume for college but lately ive been FORCING myself to go and when i get there i CONSTANTLY get yelled at and i hate it..about my sparring or this or that it bugs me so much. i dont mind it in baseball (another sport i play, i play 2nd base) but its just annoying me..i REALLY want to get my black belt..tomorrow i have to go for 2 hours since i coach what are some things i should do to MAKE/force myself to go or things to tell myself, etc.
THANKS SO MUCH!
