Karateka_latino Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Well, I guess that its ok for you to try to train in all 3... you have the time, seem that you also have the energy so go ahead and do it. If you start feeling is too much to handle then you can drop one and keep the other two. By the way, how long have you been training TSD and Escrima??

Mu Ryuk Posted August 18, 2004 Author Share Posted August 18, 2004 SubmissionFighter- I trained Tang Soo Do for eight years (ages three to eleven) and left for four years, recently returning. I chose to return at 10th Gup (White Belt), but only because of the shape I was in, not because of the knowledge factor. I have already retained the majority of what I knew. I've been doing Escrima for about a month and a half. Passion transcends pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karateka_latino Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 I was asking because i feel before crosstraining its good to have a solid base in at least ONE style before start training something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloudDragon Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Personally I would pick one style and totally absorb myself in it. Learn the how's and why's of it, learn the history amd prominent people. Most important, learn from your instructor, learn not just the art, but how to run a school and teach people who are different from yourself. Trust me, it will be useful someday. A Black Belt is just a white belt that don't know when to quit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotten Head Fok Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Mu Ryuk it sounds to me like your hungry, I say fill your plate and eat, if that dosen't fill you up go back for seconds! You must be stable and balanced in your foot work, if you have to use your martial knowledge in combat, your intent should be to win. If you do strike, you must release great power! The martial arts are easy to learn, but difficult to correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italian_guy Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I agree with Rotten Head Fok and I also think that escrima is a good complement with any other MA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
