Hi, my name's Greg! I'm 5'9" and weigh about 135 pounds. I've been practicing Shotokan karate for ten years now; I'm a first degree black belt. Unfortunately, I haven't found Shotokan very compatible with my body type. A lot of the moves and techniques require concrete power and force my...

I've wished to learn and practice martial arts for many years but never got into it because I lacked time and money. Are there specialized websites / videos / PDF files that anyone can give me to so I can get started or something? I just want to practice as a hobby, instead of just doing...

My martial arts instructor says a good black belt is someone who can take down in one hit and not two He has won three championships and knows and teachs some kung fu and akido blended in to enhance our punching skills in a 70 percent taekwwando class. He talks a lot about what to do to protect...

yea that's my guy in english? Umm no im 27 and hes merried with a kid, but he does want me to work on form because now he is profecting my strightness. Only after teaching me the basics

One of my co-workers is real big into UFC style fighting, the MMA stuff I guess. Anyway he said that martial arts is only good for other martial arts fighting. He said that it would not work against MMA styles of fighting because martial arts was designed to fight other martial artists? Is that...

A woman who is 5'3", 120 pounds, skilled in gymnastics and dance, and is looking for a way to use her agility, balance and flexibility to get the better of opponents much larger and stronger than her. Something feline, I guess. I was looking around, and akaido seems good.....? What do you think?

I did not bother to ask when i started learning them, but it seems its how you would learn to take your basic moves and turn all 4 directions using them.

Apparently im taking full taekwando and its not just kicks and basic martial arts kicks and punches but akido and kung fu integerated like joint locks and stances used are from other arts. I do not know but my causin told me

I am 134 lbs. I am already content on full-range MMA and TKD. Maybe MuayThai, but the thing is, which one would be 'best' if I take it first?

...you get a replica? Eg if you win a oceania title in Boxing Kickboxing Muay Thai or MMA do you get a replica after that belt is no longer in your posession

im 16 and am really motivated to join the marines so i was wondering what martial art i should learn if any

Because of my name people on here mistake me as a "UFC fanboy" which is not the case. I watch UFC because it has the best MMA talent pool in the world but I hate what it has done for martial arts as a whole. It's popularity has caused people to think that mastering one single martial art is...

I was wondering if anyone has added something to there style that they have gotten from somewhere else? I have been training in various martial arts since 1997 and recently I seen a move in a mortal kombat game where liu kang jabs his enemy in the throat with the area between his thumb and...

...to master it? This may be a frequent question... I know that it is said that you will get out of it what you put into it -totally agree. However, there are also realities. I've been thinking about taking up Judo for some time now and may do it. I turned 22 last week, though, and while I've...
