Martial Arts

Post by ojamamask » 23 Jul 2011, 18:45

Discuss!

So I started doing martial arts when I was 6 (I think). First of all I started, just like any other kid, doing karate. I got to my yellow belt and then the school closed down, this was when I was young so my memory's vivid. Then not that long after I started to learn a kung fu style which I didn't know what it was called until recently, this was Choy Li Fut. I learned it for 4/5 years but then my si fu retired, and now I learn wing chun. I like doing Wing Chung because it helps me with my reaction timing and my problem solving. Someday, when I master Wing Chun, I hope to revisit and fully understand Choy Li Fut because it's something that has been bugging me. Also I want to learn Iron Shirt and Praying Mantis but I'm luck if I can find a si fu who teaches in England.

So any of you guys do any martial arts? It will be interesting to know.

Stop calling people trolls when they are not trolling.
6 years old does sound a bit young, but I'm a bit on the fence with this one... since it can be a good way for being fit and having a bit of fun.

Milo, the joke was in the typo - he wrote "marital" instead of "martial", so "marital arts" would mean something like getting married or marrying people (like a minister).
