Wing chun vs. Karateka

thanks.

 

It always feels like that the first time round.

 

I've finally made my decision. I'm going to train aikido. It's just what I need right now, and believe it or not. I found a good dojo that trains properly. Often after class the instructor and higher level students get together and spar. One person does attacks spontaneously and the other person preforms whatever technique he feels is necessary. From what I've been told on this forum light sparring helps you learn how to preform under pressure also. They don't go full contact, but if I want to give my brother or someone some mma gloves and let him attack me the instructor said that would be cool too. They also do randori, although I forgot what exactly that was. I couldn't have done muay thai on my diet because it was too rough. Later on down the line I will crosstrain in muay thai or boxing. Probably boxing, but for now it's just aikido. If anyone thinks this is a bad decision feel free to comment. If there are no naysayers I will start my martial arts journey. If yall think this is a bad idea, there is a Shotokan place I can visit. But I researched aikido and read a lot of the comments in the other thread, and it seems the consensus is that aikido is not a bad art to learn as long as it's training methods are good.

 

I'm going to begin the 27th of this month. After I get my check.

 

allright. Ill pm you.
