never done krav maga Done MMA and teach JKD Know Krav maga is taught in military I was in the british army myself Royal enginneers a sparky MMA is different to Krav Maga but there is no clear winner I say they are both as good as each other
-
Yeh your probable right the reason said that coz tai chi is relaxing but i get what your saying doing a MA straight after another MA with different principles especially in one day it would be counter productive but when I was younger I practiced about 6 MA in one day and it wasn't always the best thing to do. Now I do one MA a day if i get the time to practice

Where did Martial Arts originate from?
Open minded replied to Dobbersky's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
I didn't know yoga was that new something new I've learned. But I did say I didn't know this answer I just used the chance to make another post. Hi you again well at least you know your stuff can't knock you from that any way what MA do you actually do? Did you read that up or internet or what? -

Open minded replied to Dobbersky's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
I read once most of MA come from mimicking the yoga moves inside the shaolin temples to a fighting art so it could be from yoga, never know No one actually knows this answer The best things in life are the ones that can't be explained -
Like you say all a belt is something to hold your trousers up the colour of your belt don't give us magicle powers It's about one self and belief in yourself rather than focusing on colour of belt or title you hold

Copper.... Alot of Aikido is used by the police force which I'm a black belt in Could use bits of BJJ submission holds Some karate but don't use too much force remember don't wear the police uniform to have power just wear it to do your job

A instructor can still be a good fighter even though he has never been in a fight You are fighting in everyday live mentally, physicle and spiritually Along the instructor is competant on what he is doing that is good enough for me Even if the person didn't have a belt to his name as a belt is only a grading not a magicle power so along he's competant that is the key

Any block is my favourite block if it defends me! The best way to defend is attack

Switching Schools? Possibly out of karate
Open minded replied to pathgen's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
Definetely do some MMA give you a wide range to your kit I have done karate, judo, jujitsu, mma, tai chi, boxing, JKD and so on An done all these for a very long period of time good to learn of all different people that just one person to get a whole wide range of opinions of the arts Some instructors don't like you training in other arts while training in their art But it is your life and how you want to play it My karate sensei didn't like me doing other acts at the time I was at karate but I told him it is my life and how I want to play it Good luck and do a bit of Boxing as well that is fun and very physical -

The Martial Arts Is Dead!?!
Open minded replied to sensei8's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
People probably say it because it isn't you can make money from unless you are a MA actor Alot of your life unless certain situations you are never going to use which is good, you don't want a GBH charge especially if you are looking for work! But along MA runs through your veins and you belief in it like I do then that is all that matters -
Depends on what MA you want to be Being a MA is not being able to do everything in the land If you do Karate or Tae-Kwondo Flexibility is ideal Aikido or wing chun kung fu you don't need it
