    I don’t think that its possible to learn a complete martial art without an instructor. I know that I learn best by watching the instructor do the moves. They also critique how I do it so I can do it the proper way. There is way to much information to learn. It could never fit onto one dvd or tape. It takes people years and years of hard work to master a martial art, its not like 7 minute abs.

    An instructor is always going to be your best option. A good instructor will tailor their teaching to your specific abilities and/or limitations, as well as being able to correct any mistakes that you might be making.

    If you want to try to get started on your own, however, you need to decide what sort of MA your are interested in. Are you looking primarily for fitness, discipline, or self-defense? Do you want to be able to compete? There are many, many styles to choose from. Please give us more information.

    Absolutely not.

    You cannot learn a martial art without the benefits of a Sensei’s teaching.

    Go to the local karate school and abuse the people there verbally and physically. They will show you some moves right away, for free…

    It may sound silly, but the best reading material you can find on the subject are by Bruce Lee.

    There is no easy way out on this one you need an instructor to show the moves right way.

    You can probably learn to fight with a book. To learn a martial art, you need an instructor.

    There are videos by I believe it’s Paul Vanuk or close to that spelling. After the military searched all martial arts instructors they chose Paul to train the new martial arts to the special forces. Paul claims that you do not have to be a martial artist to defeat a martial artist of any degree belt. I’ve had his video and believe what he teaches is good. I enjoy the martial arts very much but can not afford training. I have been told by those who know, that because of my speed and my own technique that I was good. I was even given an offer to be trained for tournaments for free by a Master in Taekwondo in Venice California, but because of circumstances with my family I had to decline. I’m telling you a bit about my experience so that you can decide whether to accept me for real or disregard my suggestions. If you wish to learn martial arts, others are right, you need some one with experience or you truly could injure yourself or others severely. If you simply want to be able to defend yourself you can reply by going to my yahoo answer profile. ( I am not a teacher of the arts nor even suggesting that I could train anyone, I am simply wanting to help guide others choosing this art.)Since Viet Nam I have dealt with several situation where I have been attacked and in every incident, Thanks to GOD, I have defended myself and a couple of women without any real harm to anyone except I severely injured one man’s ego. When I see a man beating a woman or a child I have to do something. But I’m sure his ego will survive, yet I hope not. beware of the schools that advance a person because of money and not achievement.

    I’m going to answer your question, but like just about everyone else that has responded I don’t believe you can learn ONLY from a book or video. These should be used to supplement your training, not replace it. The martial arts are about combat and you can’t learn combat without (a.) and opponent, and (b.) someone to observe and ensure you are executing correctly.

    Now having said all of that, if you insist on purchasing a home study course, then go here:

    I don’t recommend it, but some people have to learn the hard way.

    It is impossible to learn a complete m.a. without an instructor or someone to train with that can teach you. Don’t go off finding places (internet ect.) to train because you may hurt youself. Only a teacher can tell you if you are doing your m.a. right.
