#41 | | 'Til All Are One Join Date: Aug 2006 Posts: 771 Location: Ontario, CANADA Collection Count: 100+ | I have a second degree black-belt in TaeKwonDo.
I left that to study more practical Martial Arts such as:
Savate (French Kickboxing)
Jeet Kune Do
Knife & Stick Fighting
Grappling
Muay Thai
I would say the disciplines listed above are ALOT more practical and extremely intense for conditioning compared to traditional forms of Martial Arts such as Karate.
I don't think any 1 Martial Art is better than another, but combining styles (Mixed Martial Arts) is the way to go, to becoming a better fighter. You got to take what works for you and comes naturally. TIL ALL ARE ONE |

I'm an exponent of shaolin - Wu Chu Chuen, to be exact. No expert, though. There may be no peace for the wicked, but the righteous can damn well get a piece whenever they feel like it. |

I saw a Boxing commercial and it said "It's a fight to the finish" Thats a good place to end.

Hopefully they will tell me were I can train it. I always liked to try MMA and I have some Judo background, and got even more curious after seing a documentary. They have pretty mean submissions there. |
