I learnt Tae Kwon Do for about 3 years, after that long all the defencive stuff has become automatic now. You feel stupid walking on a street at night and hearing a sound then coming up into a defencive stance. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
I also once sparred someone who know somethink called Ninjitsu, does anyone know anything about this cause it was a very unususal and interesting fighting style and noone I know has ever heard of it for some reason...

Well it was... funky... that’s all I can think of. Not dance funky just funky as in weird and something I have never even seen before. At one point he approached me with his back turned towards me and he looked over his shoulder. I think it was only an intimidation and confusion technique but damn it was good. Also they are apparently not allowed to show or feel any emotion while fighting. I wish I could learn it...

Anybody here learn Qi Gong? ( inner energy? ). I tried to learn it but the master warned me not to because I'll get " zhou huo ru mo " ( I don't know how to explain it in english) and it will kill me if I insist on learning it.

I trained Karate from when I was 12 till I was 18, then I broke my knee at a practice and stopped because the knee has never been the same, very bad because I liked it very much and would probably still be training if I could...

Isnīt Ninjitsu the ninja fighting style?

I trained Jui-Jitsu a long time ago but quitted ( donīt remember why.) I intend to start to train a new martial art soon, I just donīt know which.

For the uninitiated: What is Krav Maga and Kata?
