Our system have the following belts: white yellow green blue red III red II red I Black and degrees. Bye.

Learning a couple of techniques on 12 hours its posible. But intructor?. mmm I don't think so, man.

Yes, In hapkido there's a lot of techinques using the Cane. Also they have Belt and short stick Techniques, both very usefull.

Well But we aren't thinking about something. If Bruce would be alive now.. He'll be around 60 years old or something.. maybe too old to fight with either Jackie or Jet Li or anyone. lol

Wellcome Valn!!!

I believe on been a master of one styles and have a solid knowlege of other styles, and combine them and create your own system for fighting.. What i'm not agree is a person claims being a master on several styles of martial arts. You can have multiple belts in several styles, but when you fight, you fight with a combination of techinques flowing from one to another.

That's great

Hello!!!! Have a good post.

I hate Washing the dishes after dinner. That's the exercises i hate the most , also sweeping the floor. lol

Well I live In Panama, country near to the Caribean Islands.. So it's pretty hot all the time. You don't really need to warm up too much. Just by walking to the School you are warming up and when you get there, you are already sweat all over .

i think Almost every comercial school have a belt system now.

Hey! So you learn everything on the same school?, i mean, The wushu forms and the san shou fighting.. Or the people who train in Sanshou Don't train in forms?

Hi! well, well, well. I love girls All Sweaty!!!!. very very sexy post is this, lol

Correction " I'm wondering if all those things are REAL martial arts AND can be used for real fights". LOL sorry for the mistake. i hope you understand now. lol

Hi! I was watching a wu shu Forms competition. It was a good show, fast and flashy. Very strong and flexible performers and lots of weapons. But i'm wondering if All those things are REAL martial arts or it can be used for real. Some people Say Yes, other said NO. some people thinks Wu Shu is modern Kung Fu, Other say that its only and Sport for a few young ones. What do you think my friends??

A Muay Thai book. Go to http://www.amazon.com and check this title " Thai Boxing Dynamite".

Shoot, Yes, you are right, i forgot to tell about me. lol Well i'm a 29 years old , happy Male Thanks for the advices, and what about weight training?? The problem i have, is that i do weight train but i end all sore for the martial arts sesion next day, Is there a way in which i can make my routine without having to end all Sore for the next day. I maybe doing too much weight training, that's why i want to change my routine, Thanks, lol

yes, that's the stance I like the most too. Good for attack and defense. lol

I did Kata for years when i was in Shotokan Karate. I think its nice if you are in a system who use Kata to master them and more important to know the Bunkai, and find out what those moves means and how to use them. As my old intructor Said.. " Kata is the File of all the Techniques of the style". lol by the way, I never never ever liked the Tekki katas. lol

I think cross training is the way to go. Just do it carefully and choose which styles you want to cross traing and WHY. That's very important.. Try to don't crosstrain in two thinks that are basically the same thing. Keep in mind the areas... Kicking, Punching, Trapping, Grappling and Weapons.. Try to find styles the work on those areas, and you may become a well rounded martial artist

Hello. It's great you open this forum, I need it. lol okay here we go. I need a good exercises program for weight losing and muscle building for martial artists. That can include weight lifting, cardio and stretching exercises.. how many days a week and how many hours a day. I have a program already but I need to change it. So you may help me to modify mine. Thanks in Advance

Oh Yes, the Capoeira have impresive kicks. You need to be in Great shape to perform those kicks with the acrobatics leaps and all that.

Oh, by the way. My instructor also trained in Hapkido , so i know a couple of hapkido Techniques as well.

Well, as I told before.. I trained in Taekwondo with a friend of mine who's an insturctor.. I think i spend 3 good years training TKD.

I think that its good to learn how to use all sizes of sticks.. ( from Bo 6' to filipino stick, etc..) And the knifes.
