Help against a bullie
Straight Blast replied to Metsubushi's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
Thats how it is at my school. Some dumb jock (no offence to you athletes who do sports!) with no neck who cant spell even spell Chicago goes around looking for ''not so built looking guys'' and tries to start fights with them to look good.One of my good friends Kevin was getting food thrown at him at lunch time last year,kevin is around 5'3 and pretty damn skinny.Hes been doing lohan shaolin kung fu since he was 9 and came to the US about 3 years ago,he also has a very short temper. Im sure you can figure out what happens from there. -
Only kicks I dislike are double round house(fake low then roundhouse kick to the head) and the back kick. double Round house: 1.Takes up to much time 2.not as strong as the normal RH Back kick: Well..this kick isnt so bad,i just dont like it because your eyes get off the opponent for awhile,also if you miss this kick...your clearly open. Ive met a few skilled tkd pracitioners before.Some can fight,some cant. Im sure a decent amount of tkders on this site can handle themselves.

Jeet Kune Do
Straight Blast replied to Neo's topic in Kung Fu, JKD, Wing Chun, Tai Chi, and Chinese Martial Arts
exactly hwat im saying. Bruce Lee was an exceptional fighter.He trained hard daily and stressed conditioning.That was his way of jkd. Not everyone can be like bruce(as ive seen tkders try to impersonate him).That is why you find your own way of fighting.As you said,bruces students developed more of a counter attack approach..that is their way of jkd. -
Thats like that japanese movie Battle Royale. 42 highschool kids kidnapped,taken to a island. One winner in three days,or all of their heads get blown off by a necklace stuck around their necks. You see best friends and crushes killnig eachother.

How far would you travel for class?
Straight Blast replied to CapitalKarate's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
My school is about 10 minutes from where I work.So I normally go straight after work. Ive been thinking of joining up with a bujinkan school about 20 minutes away.Two reasons why I cant go there,one being I cant drive,and two the whole way there I need to take the highway. -
Jeet Kune Do
Straight Blast replied to Neo's topic in Kung Fu, JKD, Wing Chun, Tai Chi, and Chinese Martial Arts
Jeet Kune Do was the philosophy of martial arts. It wasnt really to be the best art,but the best art for you.The whole point of JKD is to find your own way and methods of fighting. Bruce Lee was like a lighter and his students were the gas.He started them off but eventually they grew bigger on their own.What worked for him,only worked for him.He expects the same for his students. horrible example but you get my point.. -
What having a black belt means
Straight Blast replied to ShotokanKid's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
''only thing a belt is good for is to hold your pants up'' -
Getting a Black belt BJJ guy mounted on you. Answer...Pray he doesnt do anything to permenantly damage any body parts.

If you dont like it,then get out.Why waste time and money on that place? Go play around with other schools in your area.

I dont think its strange. I write down my weekly schedule aswell becuase I never stick with the same thing every week. Also I have nothing better to do in english class....
-
^haha I just got that Thats not entirely true. Almost all of tkd kicks can have incredible power to knock out the biggest of men,tkd is a martial art..not some entertainment,all kicks are practical. Sadly not everyone can use them right. Btw Kicks,Im your fan!

Movies can be evil.

Hm..I remember when I first started out at my dojo.I saw this beautiful girl(assistant instructors girlfriend) and thought hey..whats a pretty girl like her doing here. Next thing I know im taken down-mounted on-then get caught in a armbar. After that...she doesnt seem so beautiful anymore

Blade 3
Straight Blast replied to Zlatan's topic in Martial Arts Gaming, Movies, TV, and Entertainment
Honestly,its the worst blade movie out of the three. One seemed to be the best for me. Second was pushing it with the whole..new breed.But i was happy to see Donnie Yen in it...and sad when he died so quick Three...just horrible...that Van wilder guy made it hilarious though. ''I can tell you two things.One your hair due is just.....ridiculous.And two I ate a lot of garlic...and i just farted,silent but deadly'' -
What should I do...I need help PLZ!!
Straight Blast replied to karategirl06's topic in General Martial Arts Discussion
http://local.google.com/lochp?hl=en&lr=&sa=N&tab=wl You can always google for a school. just type in a specific style you want,and then the state/area you live in. -
The movie itself wasnt funny. But when you talk about scenes from the movie..its funny. Bow to your sensei...BOW TO YOUR SENSEI! Grab my arm,the other arm....my other arm.
