No the time is not the same anymore , depending on what school you go to.

Ive done JKD for 21 years , and have 15 other styles that ive done for 5+ years. In the 5 year period you learn approx. 80% of the art. So in total fact you have gained what is usefull already , and if ii wasn't a useful style you wouldn't start it in the first place.

ahhh yes it is a strong nice style. good on you throwdown"

These are great videos ps1

yes true , but he is still doing well for him self.

I would rather a free bag, so i can move around it.

1: they are all in one area , that why i said 1 muscle or 1 muscle group. 2: i said nearly impossible. 3: I know all the names of the muscles and bones and everything else about the body , but i like to keep it simple for thoses people who dont know. But thanks for sharing your knowlege.

Its all about streching , if you have the right warm up and warm down technique then u will have no problems. Ive been doing martial arts for 24 years and ive never had a problem like that because i strech the right mucles.

I would say Whing Chun , and then later on go fo the other style.

Well really the only way to know is by the look of it.

Ask them what they want from martial arts. Also what they think martial arts is all about.

Welcome to the forums! , i have many classes of small kids , and i have seen the above sites mentioned. You should look at thoese sites they will help you alot.

Maybe for one whole session , you should teach them the right technique untill they understand it fully.

ahhh but that is the risk you take. Life is about risks , it keeps the heart pumping. lol

i havent heard about it yet, but when i do im sure i will see it.

Good luck!

mmmmhhh its a very difficult situation, and coming from me that means it deff. is . The best thing would be to find some type of weapon or run.

Yea you can do all the same things as ps2 , but wif some extras.

lol hahaha

Well i have done many blocking techniques from many different styles and some of the best come from shotokan and other types of karate. Yes ur instructor is right , the wrist is no good. You need to learn how to use your hands better and also your forarms , if it hurt , well what can i say too bad that martial arts for you. Learn how to ignor the pain.

Yea that a good training idea , or even with a paintball gun.

Yes that is true , they are slowly starting to change to that way.

Yes a kicking and punching style are always good basis

You need a mixture of both , which should slowly come to you naturally as you develop your skill.

Put it this way , if you use a gun in close range a martial artist has a good chance of defending ones self. But from a distance of say 10-15 meters then there is no hope , unless you can confuse your oppoent.
