Do you practice martial arts?
What sort of martial arts do you practice in and why? Judo? Karate?
Educating yourself in self defence seems very useful especially if you live in parts of a country that might be rough.
I'd like to get into it myself but I can't hear well, I can lip read however. Did some boxing when I was very young but it was only practice on training bags : )
Kung Fu students and masters alike, let me know your wisdom!
You're viewing a single thread.
I practice Northern Long Fist KungFu and Shaolin KungFu. I have also practiced Uechi-Ryū in the past.
I chose these styles because all have practical applications in combat and have been used for combat at one point during their existence. To me, this alone proves they're useful to learn.
I also spar and have applied what I've learned to matches. So I do believe these styles are worth looking into and learning.
To bring it back to your post. Self defence is great to know wherever you live, even if you'll never use it. Most teachers are very loud and use visuals for teaching, I don't think you'll have any issues.
