Martial Arts

I’m very keen on doing martial arts, knowledge in how to defend oneself effectively is very tempting. Also i believe that the philosophy behind many martial arts is correct (Be prepared but use as a last resort).

All the motivation behind doing martial arts motivates most of my actions. Will dedicate a post to this later on down the track

Kendo

So i recently started kendo, the art of the sword. But I mean really recently, still am feeling super embarrassed at not knowing or understanding anything they are doing.

It is so much fun none the less

lets face it, samurai, ninjas and such are so cool. Even though its a wooden sword the skills are identical.. So awesome.

My goal is to have first dan (sho-dan) before my overseas travels [Will discuss these later]

To achieve this im going to the dojo twice a week plus reading up on all the material i can find. Plus i want to start Iaido later on.

Muay Thai

Another martial art im interested in doing is kickboxing

  • Turns the leg into a deadly weapon
  • Dramatically improves fitness

Don’t really want extreme fighting skills, just fitness and confidence that hopefully will be furthered by this.

Jiu-jitsu

The grappling martial art is again something I’ve always been interested in, just never been so far as to join up

  • First Dan before travelling would be nice.

So these are my first set of goals that i wish to achieve. Jason Statham has all the time to practice his fighting skills because he is an actor with heaps of free time and he is a model of mine.

As is Bruce Lee
Dear god that guy is amazing.
