Radok Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 any art you train in with the main purpose being to be a better fighter. If you can't laugh at yourself, there's no point. No point in what, you might ask? there's just no point.Many people seem to take Karate to get a Black Belt, rather than getting a Black Belt to learn Karate.

dark_adjudication Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 I would say any MA dojo that doesn't have a collection of trophies in their front window. If they do or focus on tournaments then they are a combative sport Judo, TKD, and some Karate can go either way. It depends on the instructor and how they teach it. Boxing might win you a fight but the fact is that it is a sport with rules. Fighting someone who fights with out rules when that is all you know can ruin your whole day. Krav Maga, most JJ, Gung Fu, Aiki Jitsu and Ninpo are combative arts.

JerryLove Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 Close to Radok's answer... a combative martial art is one whose training revolves around improving your skills at combat. https://www.clearsilat.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
