Anyone taken a Martial Art?

I was wondering how many people on LTT. Have taken a Martial Art before.

 

For me I have taken Judo.

 

If you didn't know Judo was a branch off of Jujitsu. Jujitsu was more of joint locks in during the samurai age which practiced would sometimes seriously injure practitioners of Jujitsu.

 

Judo is based on using an opponents energy and movement to throw them. And also learning how to get your opponent off balanced so you can throw them.

 

Is a Martial Art easy? No not at all, everyone is pretty crummy at it at first, but once you start training and continuously keep doing it you'll get better in no time. I tend to be really good at mimicking moves easily, but still kinda soft due to the fact I don't want to hurt anyone so I don't actually use my full power to toss someone because am not in a fighting/surviving mentality. Am slowly changing that so I can be better at Judo so I can fully throw people.

 

I must say doing some of the workouts are extremely hard but let me tell ya your ass is going to get buff as hell mate. I went from a flabby ass guy to flabby ass buff guy I had arm, leg, core muscles. I was like DAMN! I finally got some muscles lol.

 

 

So what Martial Arts do you guys planning to do or did ?

 

I might do some Akido after another couple of months of Judo again.

NEVER GIVE UP. NEVER STOP LEARNING. DONT LET THE PAST HURT YOU. YOU CAN DOOOOO IT

Hehe Sames.

My college has a few martial art classes I can take. One is I THINK Tae Kwon Doe or whatever. It goes towards my high school gym class if I were to take it, but lets face it I would get the living shit beat out of me.

I am currently studying To-Shin-Do under 8th Degree Mark Sentoshi Russo at Quest Martial Arts in Tampa, FL. This is honestly one of the coolest martial arts out there and if you have a dojo near you, I would highly encourage anyone to at least go in and check it out.

It isn't often you see someone beat a snake with such brutality

(also the most memorable scene)

Third degree in Tae Kwon Do. Did it since I was in 2nd grade. Unfortunately I stopped when I moved. Have done a bit of kickboxing and tai chi since then, but nowhere near to the extent that I did TKD.

I done been through a whole lot. Trial, tribulations, but I know God - Kendrick Lamar

I took 3 months of taekwondo when I was younger. My parents pulled me out of it because the place I were doing it through wanted my parents to sign a 2 year contract, and they weren't about that life.

 

Twas a fun 3 months though. Would love to pick it up again.
