flip on to hands front flip back kick... land on left leg....

yeah i guess its always gonna be diferent though.... some students are just more dedicated than others.

depends on how you spar though, but generally i agree.

yeah i think we all will stay with our own MAs , but i would agree that Wrestling in generaly is pretty effective.

yes - but their application is different from a SD situation - the laws are different etc... im inclined to agree with TJS's post

Surely the "difficulty" of an art to beat is more about how you train rather than the art it self?

Also - legally arent restraints etc. the best option....

Or a third fourth and fifth the way it sounds with some of this... admittedly i dont learn chi kung but i still think sometimes things get a bit expensive.

Before anyone goes off on a debate on this - there are loads of posts on this already - go have a look they're pretty recent

ok cheers - was just trying to get a summary.....

Ok - since you say there's not much difference - how does it "emanate" a "few feet" from your body.... it was have to have a MASSIVE potential difference to even disappate that far......

yes - but then they would have been trainnig for 30 years - we're talking about people starting off older than that.... Im not disagreeing with you in general - just trying to help explain the other point. also - thats the bible - depends whether their catholic then doesnt it.?

exactly - as i always say - depends how you train, and what you train for.... most MAs are effective when trained for the right conditions.

ah its white crane - isnt there another thread on about this? So its a Kata set as well cool.

no i didnt say they improved each other... aerobic doesnt improve anaerobic... but the contrary is true: anaerobic improves aerobic endurance....

It wuold take 5.5 years for us to achieve i-dan [2nd]....

I agree.... i think the basics are always worth learning... but generally when confronted with a gun, compliance is advisable

Well i think that there are some people who when honest with themselves would admit they are probably masters.

Yeah... although AiKwonDo could work... ish.....

Yeah i guess society has a lot to do with it..... but i guess its experience as well. Like what you've seen / done.

Still you should have tried... again back on topic I have a habbit of bowing to people that come to my door when i say bye.

i guess u meant "trap one" - rahter than tryingt to strap one on hehe

Nah - id just drop my LightSabre and go off in hand to hand..... im pretty sure a rising block would work against that lightning

Wow - surrounded by americans... though thats not really a surprise.

or is that 1337??? HEHE There are so many classic games out there, I thought that Tekken 3 with teh sidescrolling sub-game was funny for about 10minutes.
