Python Posted September 7, 2004 Author Posted September 7, 2004 hey. sorry for the late reply... anyway...id like to let you all know that i dont want to be some professional martial arts guy who trains daily and is able to use everything perfectly. All i want to do is have a hobby. Im not very serous about it and neer plan to be. My plan is to just practise in my spare time and give me something to do. I dont plan on ever fighting anyone with them. If someone approached me and started a fight i would most probably throw them away and either fight him properly or try and settle it another way. So if you understand what im saying - I do it because I like it and it gives me something to do. Its just fun and I will carry on practising slowly until I get bored with it. Im not going to join any classes simply because I live in wales and i cant find any plus classes mean dedication and intense training - not my type of thing. http://www.devdreams.comhttp://www.dynamicnunchaku.tk

In that case Python...I'd say go for it and have fun!!! My nightly prayer..."Please, just let me win that PowerBall Jackpot just once. I'll prove to you that it won't change me!"
47MartialMan Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 Yeah, enjoy your hobby...... "knock yourself out" Some can tell that you are not "serious" Sometimes if you ask what does anyone think, prepare for a multitude of opinions. I still had enjoyed this thread
Spin Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 Shorinryu Sensei: Thanks. I'm rather opinionated sometimes, which isn't always to people's liking. But I speak what I feel, and say what I feel is correct from my point of view. Some like it, some don't...makes little differance to me. that is remarkably similar to how I feel about things Shorinryu Sensei: Well, I don't know exactly how far in the whole scheme of things I've gone yet on this path, or how much farther there is to go...but I do know that no matter how hard I train, or how much I learn...it's never enough to say that "I'm finished" and know it all. I feel the same with my studies of computers, I'll NEVER run out of stuff to learn !!!I would imagine that if you searched Google (I LOVE GOOGLE!) you'd find lots of information about those other systems. Us DMA's love google too (Never heard of the Digital Martial Arts? you have now ) http://www.spinstorm.cjb.net
Spin Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 Oh yeah, Python, I improvised flashy techniques for around seven years, eventually it gets boring.. Thats about the time I decided to start learning how to beat stuff with them http://www.spinstorm.cjb.net
47MartialMan Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 Spin, I like the nunchaku swing "smiley".
Python Posted September 8, 2004 Author Posted September 8, 2004 Oh yeah, Python, I improvised flashy techniques for around seven years, eventually it gets boring.. Thats about the time I decided to start learning how to beat stuff with them well i know some basic atacks. i bought a book about nunchaku and have been studying it and practising its contents. its got things like how to do basic atacks and manouvers. then it goes on to how to disarm a person when their holding a knife - which i can happily do since my step brother lets me practice on him http://www.devdreams.comhttp://www.dynamicnunchaku.tk
47MartialMan Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 A book in hand is worth two in the bush? How about a book in hand is worth two in the trash can?
Python Posted September 8, 2004 Author Posted September 8, 2004 your probably right...a book cant explain in detail and give moving examples on how to do something...but practice can http://www.devdreams.comhttp://www.dynamicnunchaku.tk
47MartialMan Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 Provided that you are practicing correctly....and how can a book, other than another person, actually "see" and point out this? Python, I understand why you have this opinion. Perhaps, its your youthful exuberance that may have you this way. Use that same curiousity, that same youthful exuberance, and take up many classes. Then, judge if it is not to your liking. dedicated to ww
