Yeah, but there aren't any in MD. I thought maybe there are some smaller non-affiliated schools in MD.

Hi, I'm looking for an art that is very effective, and easy enough to learn that one can become proficient in it in about four years (after that I'm off to college). At the moment, I'm seriously considering Thai Boxing (which I think is aka Muay Thai) and Krav Maga. I have a good Thai Boxing school here, but I can't find any Krav Maga schools. So if anyone knows of any good Krav Maga schools in Maryland, especially the Rockville, Montgomery County area, PLEASE let me know. Thanks a million!

Hi, I was wondering, what's the difference between Kali and Silat? Is there any significant one? Does Kali incorporate most of the Silat techniques, or techniques similar to Silat? Thanks!

Hi, I've been looking everywhere for some good (or for that matter any) Silat schools in Maryland. If you know of any, or area Guru, but don't teach in a school, PLEASE post here. Thanks very much!! NOTE: I'm also looking for Wing Chun schools in Maryland, so if you know of any, please post them here also. Thanks! [ This Message was edited by: DanielM on 2002-06-24 18:50 ]

Thanks HarvestoerofSorrow. Pacificshore - I'm not looking for a fight, but I want to be thoroughly prepared in case of one.

Hey everyone, I'm a 14 (15 soon) year old from Maryland. I took Shaolin Kung Fu when I was younger, and starting two years ago, I also took Tae Down Do/a little Hapkido, but now I've stopped. I'm currently looking for an extremely effective fighting art that's good for any fighting situation. Any ideas or schools in Maryland would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot, and nice to meet you all!

Hi all, When I was about 7 I took Shaolin Kung Fu for about a year, but then I stopped. About two years ago I took up Tae Kwon Do, and advanced to Red Belt, but then stopped. Now, I'm looking for a good fighting art that would actually help me in a street fight, or for that matter, in any other fight (aside from those in class such as sparring, etc.). I've considered Silat, but there are NO schools in Maryland, and I don't know of any other gurus. I've considered Capoeira, but again, no schools. Right now, I'm considering Thai Boxing, Muay Thai, and Hapkido. Which do you guys think is the best of those? or if you know of another, do tell. Also, if you know of any Silat (preferably) or Capoeira schools in Maryland, please let me know. I'm looking for an art that I can take up for several years, and in any fighting scenario, come out triumphant, whether an opponant is using knives, guns, chains, whatever. Thanks!!
