Actually , greeks developed their martial arts (pankration , boxing , wrestling ) basig on egyptian martial art called sebekkha which was created from about 5000 years ago .

Welcome

I've done a Google about Indian martial arts and that link proved to be useful http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Gatka

Vovinam is a Vietnamese martial art very close to Chinese martial arts , it's joint locks are similar to chin na which reflects the Chinese influance on the art . Also characterized by powerful kicking , sometimes flashy and weapons training By the way mantis , where r u from ??

I've heard of an incient form of indian wrestling

What i know is that sambo is a russian form of wrestling rooted in judo , developed for russian soldiers in the soviet union era by a russian judo champion .....

swimming and If chess is counted as a sports ... I used to play soccer

You know , I am sick of the get away thing . I know a lot of you would disagree with my statement , however , we train in martial arts to defend our selves , if I am to get away on each confrontation , I would train as a runner

You should sponsor some knock down tournaments first , to build a reputation for yourself and to c how the things would go .

I guess you should have to switch styles ..

Thats a generalization , what about thai/kick boxers , kyokushin karatekas , judokas , BJJ guys , shidokan , daidu juku , seido , ashihara , san soo and many others ??? Lots of black belts have been produced by commercial (Mc)dojos , those black belts are worst than untrained persons since they think they know how to defend themselves ( and keep telling every bodu about how good they are ) while they actually can't

pendakarshihan1 , I stand on your left ,lol ...

Welcome .. blocks are either strikes or grapples !!!!!

They sure didn't have any OKINAWAN karate training

I do not know much, but I understood it that he did leave Kancho Matsui as his sucessor and that other shihans were displeased with his choice and a lot of them formed splinter groups. What i know is that he haven't name anyone as his successor , but being his favorite student , Matsui took in charge of the IKO and the other shihans were displeased . As a matter of fact there is more than 25 organizations that hold the name of kyokushin ( one way or another ) and lots of other kyokushin offsets formed b4 and after Sosai died . The question is : Why didn't Sosai name his successor ??

Putting Mcdojos out of business is an impossible mission

IKO3 International kyokushinkai orginazation 3 (kansho matsuhima's faction )

I didn't ment to say that kyokushin instructors are pure evil , what i ment is , kyokushin is indeed force oriented , just like cobra kai's style

I belive that lifiting weights is better than push ups

Exactly , best training session for me is the advanced students session which is usually limited to 10-->15 students . Large number of students is good for kumite training though

I have a friend who made his own full body suit .. It cost him about 200$$ .

Lol.. i know what ur talking about , i have a student who his father tries to give advice every tournament ............ and thats how he loses all the times

I usually drink a cup of milk every evening

I agree , every style has a weakness , however , it's good to know both advantages and disadvantages of the style you are practicing

Congratulations , what was you doing during those six years ??
