Hi

Even just as a joke, the above conversation makes some sense. So many people out there have been ignorantly (sorry to say) saying "with guns we can do without martial arts", without even looking into the reality. People with that sort of mentality should first think why police/military/other enforcement personnel are all required to undergo intensive non-armed self-defence training programmes when they are already equipped with sophisticated ammunitions.

In Malaysia and most other countries the public are banned from bringing guns (and even blades) for personal protection. If that's not enough, in fact, so many cases of street violence do not even involve firearm-equipped offenders. And this is where self alertness plus good self-defence skills come handy.

pesilat here !

I saw the documentary on Silat the other day on Discovery. You know where these two guys go around the world to learn martial arts? Looked pretty cool and one thing I noticed is that it continued to look good even in match fights A lot of other martial arts in sports form lose their beauty imo

I saw there were some takedowns? Do you also learn ground-fighting?

o.O there is? That's awesome. Wanted to try BJJ or Judo or something else,used to do Taekwondo last time but had a really lousy environment and no eQuipments. I'm actually small in size and I look like 16 even though I'm 19. Unfortunately, I'm heading down to Singapore this weekend for something. Maybe I could come the week after this one. Is that possible? Ding's Martial Arts Gym is at Kelana Jaya there right? Zzzz...I really don't feel like driving down there due to bad experience even though I'm around Taman Tun. Does anyone live near Taman Tun?

You can drop in anytime.

TTDI to Kelana Jaya is really near...

Hi there

Yes, most silat styles have a fair share of both stand-up and takedown/ground-fighting techniques alike, hence the advantages (and disadvantages too) of being broad-based.

I do agree with that. I did consider supplementing my Aikido with other martial arts as I think once you progress to a certain level in a martial art, the effort it requires to learn more goes up. Kinda like an exponential curve?

I was perhaps thinking that's why MMA has been so effective and popular as you pick up the principles of each martial art and you get a well rounded system that is excellent in practical situations and easier to learn but at the cost of not learning the finer touches of each style. Probably the best choice for someone looking for martial arts as a self defense form.

With Aikido especially the good parts of it come only much later in training (probably more so than martial arts) so I was thinking that perhaps diluting my focus would affect my Aikido development. Do you find this to be the case with other martial arts as well?

Hi Rueben,

I knew 3 Aikido BBs who shifted to BJJ training here. Here is a blog from one of them:

Instead of reading and theorizing, why don't you drop by one of the MMA/BJJ gyms and try them out yourself. Discover the journey yourself like bro Rizan above.

Wishing you all the best.

What are the training days like if i were to take up BJJ ?

Depends on which Academy you go to:

For BJJ & MMA, we have:

KDTA: http://www.kdta.com

Brutal BJJ: http://klbjj.blogspot.com/

Crush MMA: http://escobarbjj.blogspot.com (lead by ADCC Champ & BJJ Black Belt Marcos Escobar - should be da best!)

and the latest one: http://pjjiujitsu.blogspot.com/

Please share your experience if you do attend the training. All the best and enjoy!

Oh, btw, nothing sexist but I realised you are a girl so please take note that as in any grappling arts, BJJ involve a lot body to body contact.

HUh , what's wrong with saying akido is not part of real MMA ?

Can someone show me a top MMA fighting who trains Akido seriously ?

Maybe Yosinkai Akido is a donor to the forum ?!

erm? a bit confused.

as far as i know isn't anything all goes MMA? Not implying anything just wondering if a broad based approach would suit me.

Need to find a MMA school here in Kuching
