I realise that it’s a strange question on a site like this but does anyone here do any martial arts. I know some members do some.
I’d be happy to hear about it if anyone did (or used to).
I did for two years. Health kept me from continuing. Very intense and physically demanding.
What sort of stuff were you into. I have done martial arts for many years (with a few long breaks thrown in). Started out with Japanese stuff then decided that I like Kung-Fu, particularly the traditional stuff. Chinese wise, I have studied Laur Gar Keun, Foshan Wing Chun, Wing Chun, and mainly Northern Shaolin Praying Mantis. I have just started Hung kuen (Five animals style) but only for a few weeks.
Skateboarding is as close to a martial art for me as possible, its pretty fuckin’ difficult (the ‘genre’ of skateboarding i take), and the level of control needed to do something as so rudimentary as an Ollie is pretty gnarly….psychics warpin stuff right there ya’ know.
I did do about an hours yoga yesterday and that was pretty good, still stiff as a board but feeling well as could be.
i do lots of yoga. took a four class series of Chi Gung and thought it was pretty sweet so i bought a book on it a barnes and noble but haven’t really done anything with the book.

Skating is imp;very much like a martial art (except “Martial” implies combative). All of the principles of body movement are the same however.

Hence why I said it lol
Nope, always been quite interested in it though. Just never got round to ever attending any classes for anything.
