Well, my previous instructor let us crosstrain a bit, but now we've got a new one

Aruko · 06-20-2005, 02:48 PM

That doesn't mean you can't cross-train. Just don't do it through your teacher.

Meteorain27 · 06-20-2005, 03:28 PM

I know, it is just easier through my teacher, because I don't really have much time anymore to do anything(except for in the summer) else and my parents say that Tae Kwon Do is enough.

kakashi5 · 06-20-2005, 06:45 PM

what are your goals with martial arts?

Aruko · 06-20-2005, 10:21 PM

Ah. Well that's cool.

I am actually going to start training with my older bro who took Shotokan Karate for 3 years and took Shaolin Kenpo for a year. He has also self-taught himself many other styles. It's going to be fun!!!

My goals in M.A......? Hm
To learn.

kakashi5 · 06-21-2005, 04:28 AM

but why learn? for self defence in the real world? because you're bored? to get fit? to go to competitions?

thats what i mean by goals

Daxter89 · 06-21-2005, 09:58 AM

I like TKD b/c I have been in it for a year now...ahhh the wonders of TKD....in my eyes of course...

godzilla-j · 06-21-2005, 11:26 AM

i know tae kwon do and i dont really like it the master always hits me. and he makes us do the splits and if we cant go down all the way 180 degrees he pushes us down. but its still kinda fun

Aruko · 06-21-2005, 12:35 PM

Okay.....Well if put that way,

Really all of the ones you just said. Cept cause I am bored. I like to be fit, it can be useful in the real world. Etc.

But on the martial arts topic, I like a straight up Tiger Style in Kung Fu. Maybe it's the hand positioning, dunno, but I like it the most.

You should try Hung Gar Kung Fu if you really like Tiger style Kung Fu. Hung Gar is a mixture of the traditional Tiger style and Crane style together. Soft and hard together in the martial art.

Animal Kung Fu styles have really complicated footwork. It takes really hard dedication, training and practice to fully master it.

Btw, does anyone watch K1? I watch the fights there a couple of days ago and it was pretty cool.

Aruko · 06-28-2005, 03:58 PM

That'd be interesting to look into.

But another thing I might be taking soon is Aikido. I'm quite excited about learning a new martial art.

Typhoon · 06-28-2005, 04:14 PM

Yeah...Aikido is pretty good. I thought about learning that before too, but couldn't really find a good teacher or school.

OffTheChain · 06-29-2005, 04:02 PM

Aikido seems awesome. ^^ me im just currently doing TDK

Chibi Baka · 06-30-2005, 07:27 AM

Aikido i wouldnt mind, but since im concentrating on kickboxing , i dont want to learn too much...

Ero · 06-30-2005, 11:02 AM

um.. OTC do u mean tkd o_0?

yeh um.. i do TKD but when i get the chance. (when i get to a certain lvl) i want to start doing other styles.. im mostly thinkin Aikido and Wing chun... they suit my goals and are both effective. but do u think it would be a waste of time learning both seeing that the concept is almost the same?
