To be honest, wrestling and boxing is quite different from hand to hand combat. Marines go through just a few weeks of a version of Krav Magra....
Sketco I know what you're saying. But I train 9 hours a week. Not including home time... So sometimes, I throw one punch with a counter block...
I totally get what you're saying. My GM expects me to "REMEMBER" everything I do. I almost never do it the next time. I could show you pictures...
Zaad, I think you're exactly right. I said I've only been doing this SYSTEM, for this long. I've done Tae Kwon Do (fist jerk, heh) Mantis and...
Hi again Chadderz, thats why I specified I used Kun Tao, not Penchak. Kun Tao can be, um artful, I suppose, but its mostly a deflect and disarm...
Hi LFD. I've been doing all MA for about 6 years. I'm doing this specific combination of systems for about 7 months. Unfortunately, I have...
Hey, sorry when i followed your link i got to a shirt store :D After looking it up on youtube it definitely looks like Precas/Modern Arnis. It...

Personally, as a Silat student, I didn't see much Silat in the videos. But you also have to remember, Silat is not just forms. In fact, its (at...
I'm a philosophical martial artist ;)
I dont know if its ok to post this, but I will and feel free to censor it if you need to. My Grandmaster teaches Kuntao, Betawi, Penchak Silat,...
My grandmaster teaches that everything we learn is another item in a toolbox. You do not put together a bookshelf that requires a wrench with a...
I would agree with a lot of what other people here have said. I've done Tae Kwon Do (...laughoutloud?) as well as Eagle Claw Kung Fu. I now...
I apologize. Those stories are completely different. The man who became sultan only killed around 20 or so people. It was the story of Hang...
I'm SO sorry. I didn't mean to go over the top. I'll be a good boy in the future :)
Actually this is incorrect. There have been many cultures in which there was a concept of a blood rage, however the indonesian concept of Amuk is...
