You'll cut him to piece, you must have better reflects than him with all your martial art experince.

Have anyone ever had an easy time meditating with their eyes open, it seem the only time I'm ever truly at peace and clear of mind is when I am looking out the window. But any other time I'll just cross my leg, close my eyes and clear my mind.

Spinning kick to the head, jump side kick to the stomach (that one sure did finish me off T_T), or an elbow to the face.

Actually in the old days they didnt wash their belt and the darker the belt got from training the higher your rank was. Also great article

Just give it a month and by then you shouldnt even notice, and I recomoned you drink some type of energy drink (like gatorade) after practice to rehydrate yourself

Yes I think that kid may not have the maturity mentally to be a black belt. I mean kids under 13 (or maybe even 17) maynot be ready for given title black belt. Most people do just look at the belt and think they all done. I think that their need to be more requirement for becoming a black belt, because I heard situation where a black belt got beat by my friend who was a yellow belt and from the way my friend tell it, it sounded like the black belt had no clue what he was doing. Now that just not right, a yellow belt should never had that easy of a time defeating a black belt. Maybe their should be like a one year waiting period for instructors to take a look at the martial artist skill to see if he up to black belt level or something...

The first weapon I train with was a practice katana (it was one of those wooden katanas). The first one I got was the bow staff

Dont worry about what other think of you, as long as you work hard and give it a 110% (and then some) you do fine and will eventually earn their respect.

Horizontal Fist, well so far we mostly use horizontal fist in the style I'm doing right now so I gotta say horizontal fist

This has been on my mind for quiet some time. I was wonder what belt level you should be at when entering a tournment. Like should you go into tournments atlike white belts or wait and hone your skill when you like a red belt. See because I'm currently a yellow belt and there a tournmant in town and I was wonder should I wait until next tournmant when I be a blue belt and hone my skills or enter it now and get some good experience...

Sword and bo staff

Take my advice, in all the martial art videos I seen they go far to fast to get anything accomplish so I have to keep rewindng it back and fourth, so unless you got a dvd instead of vhs it will be harder to learn. But I really like karate books easier to learn

Because my inscructor told me a good way to practice my martials arts was to do the forms. Also I like to challenge myself with techniques.

My inscructor say that I should be a brown belt by April of next year so, I should get my have my black belt after 3 1/2 to 4 years of training
