martial arts
Hi All,
its good to hear karate is being discussed on this bbs. good work dr iron dick.
martial arts techniques disciplines everybody. a true martial artist will never show off his skills for silly reasons. however the acid test for anybody is to demonstrate true grit and rise to the occasion. i have seen plenty of street fights and involved in a few. only the brave ones can really brave a real fight. many martial artists with only dojo based sparring experience fail to live up to their skills.
so the bottom line is courage under fire. and the ability to size up the opponent, read their moves, and be sensible when to hit and when to vamoose from the scene.
even the great bruce lee advised to run away when challenged by an armed assailant.
some of the strong features of a good street fighter are: indomitable courage, superior reflexes, accurate leg and hand control, great hand-eye coordination, and stamina, intuition and anticipation and street smart attitude. remember that a weak person can hit you hard with a stone or any object in sight. remember that u have to be smart to convert anything around into a weapon. i guess u can watch jackie chan movies to learn innovative weapons and artistry of using them in times of need. and last of all, nothing compares to hard work and dedication to perfecting the techniques.
Quote of jackie chan"i dont move until my opponent moves, i move before he tries to move"
