What martial art is good against one who knows martial arts


Recommended Posts

Ok I have seen some good advice in here now heres my attempt. Mixed martial arts with an emphisis on steet combat, in practice you must show some control but it is the mentality I am speaking of, no you dont want to pluck your partners eye out but train with the understanding that this is what you would do in that situation, train safely but train not with points and rules in mind train to destroy your opponent in the street. This does not mean every thing you do is to kill but be prepared to do so if it is needed, only you will know when that would be, if you were wrong then you are alive and maybe in jail, or you may be dead, if you were right the same things could still happen. Read the news daily in both small and large cities and you will see that life is not a game. Train hard, train real, fight for life God gave it to you let only he take it away.

No offense intended here, but if you are going to ever become skilled enough to survive an encounter with someone who has combative skills, you will have to study one thing for a long time, rather than many things for a short time. You need to have a base skillset in order to branch out into other skills.

Actually, that is great advice. I was thinking of that, it is so hard to find time to train, etc......, Ok for me lets say, I go to JKD once a week, and Go Ju another time, but I am feeling that is not enough time to really get good. I see how my JKD teacher moves, and I dont think I can get close.

 

I am probably going to start looking around at schools, and try to pick a system that is well rounded and the school has a good schedual. It is just to find one.

 

Thanks.

Also remember, you may learn 1000's of moves but may only perfect 10-20 the only thing I have to say is if you feel comfortable with a certain technique then use it, if not throw it away. I have learned 1000's of techniques but I usually only use the basic moves from stand up to the ground, Good Luck.

 

You know, I was going to study at one school once, they did a lot of joint locking, I like that kind of stuff, but at the same time, they had like so many ways to put on various locks. So I have a questions, is there any style that keeps it pretty simple, just gives you want you need to know, and really works on it so you master those skills?

My personal goal is to learn how to master my taijutsu so that I don't have to fight.

"What if?" implies thinking. There's no time to think in a real situation. Your body better know what it's doing or you're in trouble.

Hey treebranch I do agree, if you have alot of time to think you probably had time to leave, if it is an attack then its just training and not alot of thought until its over, hookin and jabbing, poking and a stabbin, just let it flow

jkd is a good art but on the side try to get some judo, wresling, or bjj

 

you cant go wrong with some good ground skills. And regards to your teacher being much better than you keep training and you will get there someday.

which ever one is dedicated to their art and knows it better will have a better chance. Remember, knowing something is better than nothing as far as MA is concerned. Whichever one is more dedicated and practiced I believe will come out on top.
