How can I learn martial arts?
Creepy asked:
I really want to learn some sort of martial arts but I can’t afford lessons or anything like that. I don’t care about the belts either, just the experience.
Is there a DVD or something like that I could try that would actually work well?

the best thing is learn it by expert..there is no need to go to martial arts school…if you know someone ( a friend,a close friend) who is a martial artist (not so expert) try to convince him/her to teach you…
Its hard to learn from a DVD…im in md and we just had a new school open and they are very affordable…but u prolly dont live in MD so….try to go to a school and talk to the master they might be able to work something out for you…all the masters really want are dedicated students…
Type in something like “human weapon” on google videos or youtube. It would show you some demonstration on some of the martial arts moves.
only one way get an intructor alot of places have very low prices as long as you AVOID the dreaded mc, dojo
learning from a DVD does not teach you, if every stance i did was not correctedi odubt i could pass white belt testing honestly -.- you need someone to correct your mistakes and help you learn, plus its alot of fun having an instructor
finding a way to pay your dojo and instructor in return for learning martial arts is part of the process of learining. If you understand this you can see how martial arts is a way of life. Your first challenge and lesson would be to find time and money to do this. Most instructors will let you train if you explain to them that you have a desire to learn and you are willing to make up for it cleaning mats or whatever. They’ve probably done it themselves. Later when you have money repay them well for that kind of kindness.
Make sure you don’t miss any classes if you ask for this kind of special treatment
