doesn't mean it doesn't look badass

the good thing is that many types of karate et al have been forced to refine their shit to actually make it more practical

China, on the other hand, doesn't appear to be a fan of that

it a scam if you are teaching or selling something that you claim work but in reality dont. a lot of the Martial arts are fancy dance moves that will get you in more truble then if you did not rely on it

yeah

props to the jews for krav maga

probably stole that shit tho

I think if you're upfront and honest about what it can and cannot do (or at least the club you're interested in joining), then go for it

But then you've got people like George Dillman

krav maga was made to hurt the opponent to a point he was in no way able to retaliate you ever

Yeah, as long as it's not marketed as "self-defence" or some shit like that

as and exesie sure. sell it as self-defence bullshit no

exceeeeeeeeept a lot of clubs that claim they are 'teaching krav maga'... are not

here they are probably

But tai chi isn't about self defense, atleast not for many years except the serious monasteries

I remember telling a lot of students "your best style of self-defence is track-and-field"

only problem is you have to be a cop or a trainee to attend

sort of

I wanna learn Bartitsu

or have a recommendation from a security firm

slap your tits on the bar

done

It's a fighting style based on Sherlock holmes

Mixture of Jujitsu and Boxing

Based on inflicting pain

```Based on inflicting pain```

I actually have a Red belt in karate

belts don't mean shit

I had one too

But I highly doubt it would help in a street fight

how to take a gun from someone by twisting a thumb

and then shoot the fucker in the face

It helps to keep calm if you're in a fight

I had a rad belt in Karate when I was like in second grade

a rad belt?

Maybe improve your reflexes

was it totally awesome too?

@Baraban dude, no

I had a yellow belt in taekwando

`b o d a c i o u s`

I learnt it in Army school
