As one of the few western martial arts - I suppose Fencing counts? Have done it for 2 years but quit in January due to time constraints.
Am still looking for a class in Ecky Thump.... |

Yeah i do Aikido as well, only been doing it a few months but on my 7th Kyu (i train several times a week) I've been meaning to start a martial art for a long time but with uni work, EVE and g/f not found the time. But now i got free time so i took it up, absolutly loving it. I like the fact that i'm now supple enough to cross my legs
Oh and this is my Sensie, fighter pilot ftw

I would like to do Xing Yi or Long Fist, but it's really hard finding any practitioners of Chinese MA outside of China, or right in the middle of China town and even then choices are limited.

 But that being said the Drunken Brawler has been know to wreck many lives
I have much more style than a druken brawler.
Anyways, whats the point in putting someone in a hold when you got their mate smacking you in the face. Much easier to wind one, kick the other in the groin and be done with it .
Just incase people are getting worried I'm not a violent person and try to stay out of fights if possible but if there is someone laying into my mate he best get running.
P.S. My mates aren't particulary violent either (unless very drunk), just a bit provoking (especially when drunk). Anyways we live in an area of chavs... what more can I say.

I've come to realize it is really difficult to find a real effort to go into TKD or any asian martial art. Once you hit 16 your list of competitors goes way down as people you used to fight, above your age or the same with your weight class, move on to life. I really wish they taught some other martial art besides wrestling in American high schools. On my trip to Seoul for the Hamnadang it was really popular in Korean schools, wish it was the same here.

Bujinkan Ninjutsu and Tae Kwon Do, both for 4 years now. I think of the two I prefer Bujinkan Ninjutsu as I look better in black  . I also did Kick Boxing for 2 years before I graduated from uni and of the three the Kick Boxing had the best teacher. The guy was a former doorman and aside from the standard moves he taught us some really neat tricks and tips for real life self defence outside of the classes.
There's a big difference between learning the moves in a martial arts class and sparring, and actually being in a fight out in the real world. If you have the opportunity to learn martial arts from someone who has actually had to deal with fights in the real world as part of their job then they, in my experience, make the far better teacher because you'll learn so much more.

Yeah the Akido teacher I had was like that showed a throw, then advised that if its for real throw them on a small wall or something if possable.
To bad the class stopped, he was a good teacher he was showing us two moves and during the demestration i could not get the first one to work and swtiched to the second (granted it did not work) but he was quite good about me switching from one to the other in a demonstration.
Pity he stopped the class.

I'm an avid fan of kickboxing and ju jitsu (ie - a glutton for punishment!)
However, something has been bugging me for some time. I can think of numerous South American, European and of course oriental martial arts, but does anyone know of any martial arts that originated in the Middle East or around the Indian sub-continent? There must be a few, surely?
