Anyone do em? I´m into classical Japanese Budo although I practice a less "classical" art called Bujionkan Budo Taijutsu that is made up from 9 Ryu - ranging from 400 to 900 years old. It covers all martial skills from unarmed striking/locking to small arms to battlefield weapons as well as general life skills. For me its the next best thing to dancing but with a rich histrory to study up on too. Squarepousher is to dance music what Budo Taijutsu is to Martial arts! |

i train aikido. i love it. trained 5 years judo before, cause i had the wight for it... now i'm much more built for aikido. besides i train ju-jitsu and aiki-ju-jitsu and i try to make meditation and yoga as often as i can |

I used to do Judo competatively and fence to a high standard. I did Dragon Style Kung Fu for a year (that's the main one my muscles do on reflex- I don't even have to think about it, it just kicks in...) and will return to it in september. There is a club near where I live at the moment, but I like my old club best. |

am i right that ju-jitsu and aiki-ju-jitsu aren´t sports but i know judo is? how do you find the difference? plus do you relate dancing to braindance to the those arts at all? |
||||||||

Yeah, Judo is a sport, but I think Jui-Jitsu is a martial art. I don't know enough about aiki-ju-jitsu to comment on that though. I can relate dancing to it a lot and my formal dancing improved a lot after doing martial arts. The one thing I've started doing is intentionally falling out of synch to the rhythm. It's something you do in kung fu to amke your attacks less predictable. It makes it feel weird moving in time to music. I keep on wanting to speed up, slow down or miss a beat. |

judo is a sport cause you can make tournaments and competitions with it. aikido, ju-jitsu etc. are martial arts, cause the technics are too dangerous for competitions. the other thing is that sport - judo has lost the whole thing around. for example, aikido, there you have rules, meditation etc. |

Did Judo for seven years or so...now i´m planning on joining a beginners class for Tai Chi. Always wanted to do it and it looks like i´m finally going to...yay for me! |
||||||||

|

ywah.. Tai Chi in general seems to be a popular choice for the mind-body thing. I hope you get a good instrutor and ALWAYS check instructors credentials as much as possible............... there are a lot of low quality people out there as well as the decent, highly trained types. You can´t assume anything..... |

Jeet Kune Do Kung Fu. Y'all've seen Bruce Lee. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Wing Chun Kung Fu... what Bruce started out doing... it cool cos its more about movement and avoidance and energy than it is about power and strength. Its the home of the famous 1 inch punch! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's quite similair to dragon from what I've seen/people I've trained with. Plus you have those cool (if expensive!) dummies. |

i hate bruce lee films/fighting style! I love stuff like "Legend if SOng Fai Yuk" and early wire stuff with acrobatics. Then there is Kurasawa-type viceral Japanese swordsmanship movies and THEN you got "Lone Wolf and Cub" with some serious limb-hacking! |

I used to practice Shaolin Kempo Hsinshih for about 3 years, but I don't have time for it anymore. Bummer, as I felt so at home doing it. |
||||||||
|

|

LuckyPsycho: That's right. The one inch punch is cool but not really applicable. Keyfumbler: Why don't you like Bruce Lee movies? |

magiker: because i just find it really un-sophisicated and the cheeze level doesn´t make up for it i think. the most realistic fight i ever saw on film was in Bridget Jones Diary at the end with Hugh bloody grant! |

Yaarrrr, no! Bruce Lee was a great artist I think. And I feel more at home with kung fu practice than I did with Karate. I'm currently looking into Capoeira a bit as well. I saw a nice coreographed fight with Adam Sandler yesterday, in the film Punch drunk love. The film sucked though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fair play. Capoeria seems really cool.. you get to learn about the music as well and how to play the instruments. Its very dancey too........ |
||||||||

i practice jiu-jitsu some fun moves, but its not something you will often use in real-life situations |
||||||||

You know Ka-ra-te? I know Ka-Ray-Zee! |

|

JAroen: Are you mad? jiu-jitsu is great in real-life situations. All those throwings and grapplings, I wish I had the time to take in some. Capoeira is a mix of dance, acrobatism and martial art. Me sa liiiikeee! |

maybe he means that if you want to be able to apply the techniques instinctively, you'd have to practice it intensely for 10 years, in which case it would probably be one of the most effective martial arts around as proven by lots of grimy cage fighting tournaments. Btw, I love Bruce Lee(his movies were art) and alot of his theories on fighting, no single style is perfect and use only that which is effective and discard the rest. Plus don't forget that he was at the base of bringing martial arts to the west. Plus I've gained even more respect for his power after watching his training video. My God that guy was powerful. Combined with his incredible speed and technique he was one of the greatest indeed. His biggest flaw, although it works nice in movies, would have been his rage though. |

I never pictured him as full of rage. I see someone working with speed, power and deception. One of my skills is that I have a quick sense for reaction. We use to play games at our training and no-one has better reaction skills than me, that's good. ::] Karate is also like that, you have to train for a long time before it's useful. With JKD it's the opposite, sparring is introduced earlier in the training and we have weapons training which is good. It's not a flowery style, it is more efficient than good-looking. |
