Thinking about expanding martial art.

[cross]

You know Cross, I am a Nidan and I do not feel the need yet to find something else. I do not believe by far that I have learned all I can in my Art and from my Instructor.

Ofcourse, im not saying that leaving is the best option. Its just one of the many things people can do. There was a time not so long ago when i thought i needed something else. But after trying a few things i realised that the training i was already doing was still what i needed so i continued with my original training and am very happy with my choice.

I just thought it was important to present both sides of the argument (so to speak), but my advice would be find what your happy doing and stick with it for the long haul.

I think most people reach a certain point in their training when they feel the need to look for something more or something different. Its at this time when some venture out and try other styles, maybe finding what they were looking for. Others start to look deeper within the style they already do and find new things they didnt notice before, this gives there current training a new life so to speak.

Has for your question Simo, I would say definetly give hapkido a try, if you like it im sure you will find it to be a great compliment to your goju, if you dont like it, then its just another experience you can add to the list.

couldn't of said it better myself. I'm really happy with Goju, but I wanted something very different of goju, so I'm giving Capoeira a chance and I'm happy I did.
