What is MA to you?

A combination of all of the above.

 

I chose art, sport, and combat. The sport part is the best, I think.

 

Martial arts is in my blood - I chose combo...I see it as many many things.

 

its a way of life and combat

 

Way of Life - all the other options involve others.
I don't need the judgement of others, I have nothing to prove.
My Way of Life is about Me, Myself and I lol

Combo..cuz it just depends on my mood

 

For me, it is an art, combat, and I believe it is a way of life... because it has changed mine in various ways.

 

For me, Martial Arts are my way of learning combat, and improving myself. I train mainly for self-defence, basically one of my favorite quotes conscerning this mindset is "Train to live, don't live to train." (I forgot who said it first)

 

COmbination of the above, it's been about all of them to me at some point.

 

MA-sport, art and....??

For me MA's represent a sport, an art and a way to learn self-discipline, self-defence and maybe even help me with my self-confidence. I hope to gain from it fitness, flexibility and through earning my belt levels a confidence in my abilities. Also, a way to defend my friends and family if it ever comes to this.

For me its about art and combat. When seeing a beautifully articulated technique you could almost swear you were watching someone dancing but if you're on the other end of that technique you're pleading with them not to break something. Sport and fitness come into the equation as well, although with less focus as fitness I can do without any classes.

 

a combo of all of them,with the list don't think u can have one without the other

 

A way of life though I feel the MA's are for combat when needed

 

I have no idea. When I try to think of why I like MA i come up with nothing. But I love it.

 

It's almost always a combo... your perspective changes as you grow older and train longer...

 

true

 

martial arts is a way of life that effects every thing you do.

 

Way of Life

Once when that is apart of you then it can be anything you want it to be. It is kind of like the 'combination of any above?' vote but it has added understanding of yourself and of others. Like a spiritual thing.
