I am a girl wanting to learn a type of Martial Arts. Please Read?

♥ stormee ♥ asked:


I have wanted to learn martial arts for a long time but I’m not sure what type of class or training to take. I know there are many types of martial arts out there. I am 18 and pretty tough and I’m not afraid of getting hurt. But I also have no previous fighting training. If you know a good type to start out with or have any tips or advice, please let me know. Thanks!

    hey i am a black belt in choi kwang do n i suggest u join dat since it has been modified to suit girls as well as guys but since it isnt v common u can also opt for jujutso (or aiki jujutso) since u arent afraid of gettin hurt u can surely go in for it as it includes practicle lockin grabbin droppin n knockin out techniques useful for street fights if u want to go in for a comparatvely non agressive form opt for tai chi or the india kelaripayattu

    I would do Tae Kwon Do…i do it myself and it is a great sport to take. it teaches you different techniques and styles…and a lot of people your age join as well. TaeKwonDo is the art of the hand and foot, so you will be learning a lot of different punches and kicking which could help you further in life…
    It’s also a lot of fun….
    Hopes this helps!

    You should find a Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) training center near you and start there. MMA is good cause it cover alot of different types of martial arts. A few of the martial arts that you will learn are jui jitsu, muy tai, judo, boxing, kick boxing, and whatever else you want to learn. I hope this helps, Hit em Hard.

    The best one in my opponion is muay thai. It teaches you how to use your hands and feet, and unlike most other martial arts, teaches you how to use your elbows and knees also.

    There are many good martial styles that will be good for you. Check out 3 or 4 of the local dojos, and decide which seems most appealing to you.

    Get to know about the schools in your area. Find out the instructor’s qualifications. I hold black belts in TaeKwonDo and Koryo Gumdo, a Korean sword art. I am also a student of Hapkido, as well. I am an assistant instructor at our school, and love that I can give back what was given to me!
    I started martial arts for health reasons. I am 40 pounds less, but was never forced to hurt myself, as back problems were an issue. Now I can do much more than I ever dreamed!
    I was also blessed with the opportunity to train at our World Headquarters in Korea! It was the trip of a lifetime, one I never believed I would take. Opportunities abound, but watch out for in-and-out type schools. To some, money is all it takes to get a black belt… bought and not earned!
