I don't know if I've checked in before, but here's my details: My name is Michael I train at Munen Muso Martial arts. It's a mix between...
It's actually really good fun. It's different to my other training, but there's a lot of stuff that carries over. Things like tornado and crescent...
That is hilarious! It's also a good example of a video for this thread: mostly funny, nothing to get into uproar about and making fun of it isn't...
Well, I've been doing that hyper program once a week for a few months now. It is bloody difficult. By itself it wouldn't be too bad - but I do 2...
Questions for future training Firstly, I would like to say that I'm sorry if this has all been asked before but I've been reading stuff all day...
Looooooooool I have the opposite thing, I've been 'trained' by my sisters' dad since I was able to walk. This training incudes: random...
I agree with icemaster, pretty much everything he said. Especially the 12 hours part. I do about 7 hours direct training and I total 10 hours in...
I really wish I could go to tournaments like this. I'd have to do months of preparation training if I wanted to exit the building still conscious...
Hrm, I haven't ever been to a Shotokan class. Is this how all their students spar? In my experience of karate I've been told a couple ways but my...
I had to google this as well when I saw the post, I haven't used the japanese terminology for all of my techniques in ages but I realised that I...

No, I'm not still with GKR. I left the school over a year ago. The training there was actually quite good (with my sensei anyway) and we sparred...
Wasn't thinking about it at the time and I don't know how to fix it. If you do tell me.
Nice to hear that I was 't blurting nonsense. I would say that I'm almost the exact opposite of you. Although, when it comes to sparring and...
Sorry, I romoved that because I thought somebody was just being silly (once somebody put 'bdsmpapasmurf' as a tag on one of my threads). I've...
Ah, okay. I probably would've found it a bit funny to see. But I'd be scared that it'd do some damage and I'd probably scare the turkey off....
Where did you find such a big turkey? All the turkeys I've ever seen have only been about the height of a toddler. That said, if those ones chased...
I fully agree with you. Even though I only entered this thread a bit less than a week ago, I feel I may be somewhat responsible with those hurt...
