kittyblue-eyes Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I am a student of Shotokan, but realize like all MA's it has both strengths and weaknesses. Any ideas on which MA is a good compliment to Shotokan? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The BB of C Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 If you can describe for me it's strenths and weaknesses (I know nothing about Shotokan), then I can recommend a complimentary style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorbasan Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 im currently doing shotokan and ICHF Hapkido.Shotokan is great for striking moves, but i like the locks and throws of the hapkido. Now you use head for something other than target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Each teacher is different, but Shotokan is primarily a striking art. Therefore, to help to round out your game a bit more, you may look into some grappling style, like Judo or even Wrestling. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isshinryufanatic Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Just a foot note to what bushido_man said. Taking wrestling with a striking art is a great circle. Its great defencive practicality and wrestling is great fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
