The Untouchable Forums Junkie Location: Ballarat Registered: September 2003	Re: Martial Arts Mon, 22 November 2004 03:46 as someone said here, i think a lot of people here are indeed trying to talk a talk and cant walk the walk. kyokushin is a form of karate, and utilizes much of the same arsenal as a thai boxer. training is bareknuckle, and arduous, i am quite confident in proclaiming it is effective for street use and mental conditioning. i did kickboxing when i was in year 12 and wanted to be a tough mo fo. once again, uses similar techniques to kyokushin, but there is less focus on 'spirit' and 'technique.' now, everyone who hasnt practised this will roll their eyes and think that these factors are bullshit and ineffective. but good technique is the deciding factor in gaining power, and spirit is needed for mental discipline and mental strength. im taking up boxing to learn effective head defence and attack and have done a little bit of brazilian jj for my grappling. my experience with kung fu? well, as you can confer from my post i am hesitant to be ignorant of the benefits of any style...different forms of kung fu certainly have there strengths and by all means look great when done properly by their exponents, however, in terms of street fighting, MOST leave a lot to be desired. not all i guess. kung fu styles usually place a lot of emphasis on drills that rely on the 'ideal' but a street fight will never be ideal and things will not always be on your terms. in a nutshell, if you want a style for streetfighting application, you will need to simulate a street situation: biggest factor there, dealing with stress and responding to it. flexbility isnt a huge factor, most damage will be done with low kicks, jabs and reverse punches. go in a style that offers full contact tournaments as this is as close to the real thing as you can get. for striking arts, where 'character' building isnt an issue to you, id recommend kickboxing, boxing or thai boxing, where it is important, go kyokushin. if you want to be well rounded, you will need to do some grappling as well. cept there is usually his mates around to stomp on your head (or stab you ) all you have to do is go to a few dojos/gyms and watch a few varied classes. take your time and get it right and you will want to train hard. make sure they offer uninhibited sparring. sorry for the size of this post, just pisses me off when toymodders dismiss styles and from the information they put forward, seems like theyve never done or seen a class.
