thank's for clearing it up

hey a side question,what's a hanshi,renshi,etc?

well traditional arts take more time than others,but with patience and effort anything is possible

well,yeah they exhibit their goods,sO they have to be able to see past the fur .

I've hear that despite their size they can be speedy

very good posts guys.I have a question,a lot of people say that shaolin monks don't exist anymore,is this true?Because there's like two teaching in my town.

that's hardcore!Do you know what kind of sword it was?

another thing, you guys have only linear techniqes and foot work right?

so have you found the art to satisfy your finger needs?

I havent done it yet,but if I would,it would probbaly be all my upper body except my forearms.As for my lower body,I would have to think about that for a while. Thanks for the advice

well it's nice to hear your experiences sparring .Anyways this was told to me by a classmate in summer school when I was in high school,he even showed me his war wounds from regular class practice.

ohhhhhhhhhhh ok,I feel stupid .

I didn't know that martial artisit were into juggling.we should start a new trend of juggling mixed with martial arts he he he .

I agree with you,but as for me sparring is the most fun were I train.I just wish it was full contact . Anyways,sounds like your'e a yellow belt,am I right?

I haven't played it.Is it like Tekken,as in a tournament fighting game,and how realistic is it to real styles.Also what styles do they have?

well you are tall and big,but it's not that big.Well compared to some of the obese americans here.

I'm hopefully going to start kobudo next week,but I don't know if this will affect my training for two reasons: 1.it's like Karate's sister 2.It's a weapon based art. Has anybody that cross trains in weapons here have any problems switching from a striking art to a weapon art?

hmm shotokan has some similarities with Goju Ryu.We also stick to the basics,have deep stances,and our techniques and training also create strength.Also I think this is also another difference we do shiko dachi and you guys do kibo dachi,amI right about the kibo dachi?

if you take a martial art in college does it have the formal uniform and rank?or is just like workout clothes?

yakusoku,sounds like a japanese sports motorcycle.

so rikishi are you a big guy yourself?Just curious because I think it would be hard to do our Karate styles with a size like 500 pounds if you are like that.

well for me it was the punches beacuse the Karate punches were executed differently,then it was the foot work,but besides that it's all good.Although I tend to do some kickboxing looking punches when I sapr.

lol,I've kind of noticed.I don't mind seeing it though,but I don't think I would practice it.

your welcome,now I'm guessing I that I should be asking: What is shotokan like?

so it's ok to learn multiple systems,but not use more tahn one at a time untill one is mastered?
