So I've decided to take up a martial art. #1 on my list is capoeira, #2 is krav maga, #3 is kung fu. However, it struck me that since many martial arts involve psionics, some of the people on this forum might practice a martial art and have some suggestions. So my question for those of you who take martial arts; what martial art would you recommend and why? -------------------- "Take root in the ground, live in harmony with the wind, plant your seeds in the Winter, and rejoice with the birds in the coming of Spring." - Hayao Miyazaki (Sheeta from the film - Laputa: Castle In The Sky) All murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets. - Voltaire Behind every successful man stands a surprised mother-in-law. - Voltaire I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: "O Lord make my enemies ridiculous." And God granted it. - Voltaire Illusion is the first of all pleasures. - Voltaire

Supposedly, the weight training gives him the hard-training, while Tai-chi gives him the energy and spirit from the soft training for balance. I am thinking of starting that same routine. The idea of having the spiritual and energetic advantage of Tai-Chi in a built, trained body is a little... hyperbolic, but still nothing short of a "Superman" effect. -------------------- ¡HA HA! ¡ESTOY USANDO EL INTERNET! -Never learn the Art of Sword before the Art of Dance. - Celtic Proverb -Even with spiritual power, an unchecked ego will only seek to deify itself. - Frank MacEowen -One cannot traverse waters without causing waves. - Xenomancer -I find it interesting that we as scholars of metaphysics have no problem discussing the intricacies of the threads of reality, but when it comes to the things that really matter, we forget them. - Xenomancer -This world is your home. We have a mix of everything here. If you want better, make better. There's no rule of going elsewhere for the tools. That's what magick is about. - Xenomancer
