jiu-jitsu fighter

well exactly like i probably learn something new every 3 classes and if i don't like the technique than i won't practice it, i only "absorb" the techniques which i find will really work and i find that out when we spar at the end of class, but all the basics should be repeatedly taught, thay are the foundation of your training, although it really depends if your instructor is good or not, like for example he could be a good fighter but not a good instructor, sometimes it might be a blur but once you understand the basics it will be easier for you to understand the more advanced techniques and you will be able to become good FAST, i have been doing bjj for almost six months now and i can hold my own, i have also had challenges from other martial artists and i submitted them rather quickly, look into maybe it was a bad school. but kali is also really good i think i might start cross training in pekiti-tirsia,

practice alot

well when i studied ninpo/jujitsu we did sparring but we had to use each tecnique we knew to defend against your partners attack, and you didn't know which attack he was goin to do so you still had to defend against it ,

kk bjj is rated as follows 1)9 2)3

RENZO GRACIE ........... IS IN NEW YORK, !!!!!

mma choy lee fut( but be prepared to put your time in) and kali is really good

i learned the hard way , i did a spinning crescent kick onece and got nailed in the back with a side-kick ,that was a bad enough experience for me to give up spinning kicks and i guess theres a situation for everything though

OH DO YOU MEAN THE STYLE WE ARE CURRENTLY PRACTICING?

1)3 2)3 3)3 4)2 5)0 6)1 i guess

shoot fighting was developped by a few guys, funakoshi and a few others, anyways these guy mixed muay thai, karate,judo,and german wrestling to create a good ma' anyways i have fought against shooters and they're tough

judo man !! bkj1284 are you serious LOL hope you have alot of time on your hands

shoto tanemura used to be my grandmaster, he created the genbukan style and federation of ninjutsu

why is this even a discussion of course you should bring someone , what if this guy is a wacko?

he should stick up for him , how many ppl exactly pick on him ?

but does kali resemble muay thai and bjj with its chokes ,elbows,knees,throws,submissions? its suppose to be a well rounded ma' is this true ?

Im really curious of what you guys think of kali, im interested in studying the art but I have realised that it might be a great weapons art. But why spend time traing in an art that is based on weapons fighting when only on the rare occasion will you be packing a pair of kali sticks? I mean i know kali has unarmed techniques, but when am i ever goin to have a rattan or a knife on me? Im hesitant to train in this art because to me it seems absolite, please educate me on what circumstances my kali training would be usefull to me? i do study boxing and bjj, im just curious about where you guys think kali training could come into play?

most of your post have been based on what other people have said, you probably just sit at home read about ma's on the net and call yourself a martial artist , WHO DO YOU TRAIN WITH? top my knowledge there isn't a jkd instructor in finland

its the same style its just refined, its up to the instructor wether he wants to change the name of the style though, some ppl do this and some don't. yes its still karate its just it has been modidfied

like you develop bad habits because your not used to training in another ma' kyle-san ?

you study from books !!!!!!!!!!!!where do you have the knowledge to even comment on other martial arts?

kensai your actually missing parts of the history,..... alexander the great supposively taught the indians "wrestling" than the indians taught the chinese, the chinese taught the japanese and the japanese taught the brazilians

number one and two sound good

bonnyboy thats a full plate you have on your table

I have studied a few martial arts, but you know the saying, whats right for you, well i only found the right one after 7 months of training in various ma's , I currently train in boxing and brazilian jiu-jitsu, and am saving up ebough money to take a few private kali classes to familiarize myself with kali stick and knife fighting, i would just like to know, what martial arts you guys cross train in ? and how your time is distributed? i personnaly train 3 times a week in bjj and boxing 1 time a week. and what are your thoughts on cross training?

i like to throw a few jabs than clinch throw a knee or two , go for a throw or foot sweep, than apply a submission through the attainment of a dominant position
