I've done 6 years of kyokushin, I fell very sick last year and missed 1 year now and been fighting for my health ever since, I plan to carry on, sometimes we have setbacks in life but I want to keep going, you give me a lot of hope thank you! In the future I'm going to do muay Thai as well I think it's a good idea after kyokushin because muay Thai fighters can withstand blows really well, and being sick made me weak so I plan to build my strength again

@@the_only_ONE_ every martial art can be very deadly if the practitioner is crazy good. They say kyokushin is deadly cuz certain kicks hits and such are with really strong contact. What I mean is the way we were thought to fight is just more brutal then most other martial arts because we don't space eachother when sparing and the training is very strict. In my opinion kyokushin is a deadlier and less forgiving style karate but everyone can practice it its survivalble lol!

Don’t be afraid to take advantage of these taster lessons! Not only can you try out all martial arts you’re interested in but you could have 3 or more different taster lessons in 3 or more different gyms around you, do this for every martial art you want to try and you’ll have a pretty full schedule for 2 months or more. Now you’ll have a much better understanding into what every sport has to offer and you can compare the different gyms before ever paying anything.

All great points! As a fellow karateka, although I practice okinawa Goju Ryu rather than Japanese Shotokan, I appreciate learning other points of views and see how same techniques are expressed or applied differently. Along the journey, I tried Taekwondo and found out it’s not for me, but I enjoyed Capoeira due to athleticism, history and music. I’ve been recently doing a Chinese martial art called Bajiquan, considered to be the Bodyguard style of CMA, and noticed how similar it’s techniques are but done completely different. Keep it up, Nat

Great job, have done shotokan, Goju ryu and tkd. Then went to Chinese arts around 12 years ago. (not even trying to be an ass) but shotokan/shorin ryu is Okinawan karate. Shorin ryu is slightly older than Goju ryu and they are the two original styles of"karate". Most people just teach a more modernize sport version of the art(basically tkd ). Kyokushin is japanese karate.

As a child, I didn't like martial arts that much because it involved a lot of fighting and violence. But a few years later my parents decided to put me in karate, I didn't like the idea at first, but after my first class, I loved it. My teacher was amazing, I liked it so much that I always looked forward to classes and even started training by myself at home. Another thing I loved was the smell of the training area lol I just liked the scent for some apparent reason. One thing i didn't like were test days. It usually just consisted of fighting other opponents (obviously with protection). I still didn't like the fights, but I eventually grew to like it aswell. As for now, I don't go to karate classes because I had to stop during the pandemic. But I still want to go. I'm still talking to my parents about it lol

I'm into HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts) I mainly focus it's fencing, but it also has its wrestling and striking based martial arts. Right now, other then fencing, I'm practicing it's wrestling, witch is called Kampfringen ( German wrestling ). It's pretty much wrestling at the arms, legs and body. I won't go too much into detail but, it teaches takedowns dislocations. It can either be a sport or combat martial art.

@@billetede2peso113 there are forms of punching and kicking, but it is used to perform takedowns easier against the opponent. But if you're talking in terms of general striking, it is neither used and practical. The reason for this is because, in the Renaissance era, people walked around with weapons and forms of armor in the daily, so punching wasn't practiced as much.

If you get into the mindset that it is the practitioner that is important, not the style, it will go a long way in finding your place in martial arts. Everyone is different in their interests and their body type. Focusing too much on the style of martial art can take the focus off why your really learning what your learning (It can also lessen confusion between similar styles like Nat said, it doesn’t matter if a move is called white tiger’s strike or a jab; it doesn’t matter if you call your teacher a Sensei, a Sifu, or a coach, it’s all the same thing). At the end of the day martial arts is just a bunch of nerds fighting, and anyone who thinks better of themselves because they can fight is frankly an asshole. YOU do what makes you comfortable; YOU do what you think is cool; YOU are the one trying to LEARN, you’re not doing it for anyone else. My Sensei always says “Go as fast as you can, but as slow as you need to.” I hope anyone reading this checks out more of Nat’s stuff, it’s great, and has an awesome journey through any and all martial arts, finding themselves loving what they do :)

If you want to learn self defense you should probably pick a martial art like BJJ judo or wrestling or a martial art with ground work and grappling. If you want to get in shape from Martial arts and still learn how to fight pick something like boxing or kickboxing. And if you want to have fun and learn something cool and fight like super hero’s or most action hero’s like Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee teakowndo or karate would be good. Obviously this is just my opinion but as a person who has trained in teakowndo Karate and BJJ this is something I think is really helpful to know especially early on. Hope this helps you find your martial art

I think aesthetics can also be something that people are interested in. I was very interested in Shaolin Martial Arts and the flashy weapons that you can learn so thus I chose it. But I definitely would also recommend doing something that's not only just for show which is why I also did Sanda.

In your opinion, do you think Martial arts is a sport? I’ve known a few people who get seriously offended when they hear it being called a sport, and only classify it as a self defense. Personally, I think it depends on the person, and how they look at it. But what do you think? 🤔

I think martial arts as a whole are not sports but a large portion of the martial arts world is sport based competition, which i don’t think is a bad thing at all. I hate when people get annoyed at the sport side of martial arts because it’s giving the art more exposure

It is, tho it's flaw is that it sometimes sacrifices speed, fluidity and strategy for explosiveness. Muay Thai is very stigmatized - for example, trying a karate kick would be a big mauvais ton. Spoken by its passionate apprentice.

question: I have been practising karate for a year. I don't really know if its a mcdojo. Since I've joined, my ability to fight has really improved both with people that are untrained and with people within my own dojo, however it also feels like it hands out belts like candy as once you get into the grading (basically you have just done enough lessons) you are nearly guaranteed to get a belt

Usualy a Mcdojo try to look old with loads of pictures of old masters etc, the classes are usualy expensive and the belts aswell. But i feel like if you feel like you improve both physicly and fighting wise and the instructor can show the techniques well then its prolly good to go

Very informative video, but I think you forgot to mention about the fact that there is also Filipino Martial Arts (FMA) which is similar to what MMA is doing but it includes weapons as well. this can provide a true all rounded experience as you can learn how to use combat on the streets and can use weapons.

Where i live there isnt many options for Martial Arts, except for a few garbage places. But i got lucky: my dad has a friend who teaches Muay Thai, and so as soon as we moved in the city i started going. Its been 3 years, but ive only really made progress this year cause now i live there and dont have to go through a 1 hour drive through a mountain island (Kefalonia). I really enjoy it, and even though i mostly do rowing, Muay Thai has become a part of me and i wont let it go. It aint no way im missing the traditional Thai music and EFFEX remixes that play while we do our training 😂 Fast low, illuminating high kicks, deadly knees and elbows... I LOVE MUAY THAIII!!!!

I've been doing karate (Isshin-ryu) for about 6 years and have a bit less than a year before I'll most likely be eligible for black belt testing. I have loved the journey and passing that test will be one of the great achievemnts in my life so far as it is pretty brutal (hours each night for about a week, including an all nighter at the end). That being said, I would like to round out my fighting skills with some other martial arts some day. I've been thinking maybe BJJ so that I can have some ground game since we barely do anything with that in my style of karate other than a couple of basic self-defense techniques. MMA sounds like fun for sheer variety of what you practice in it, though, and I like the brutal practicality of Muay Thai as well. I don't have the time (or money) currently to add anything to my repertoire, but I it would be fun to branch out some day.
