Martial Arts

Whenever this question comes up on MA forums it gets a wide variety of weird, wacky, intelligent or mystical answers.

What I really want to know is your personal perspective on kokyu and how it apllies to your training.

Im looking for a weapon that is in the shape of a stick, and is throwable in a way that it wont spin, the tip would always strike the target, No not a dart. I was thinking it would be cool to be able to do this and hit something accurately, I would be so great at carnival games.
I didnt know where to post this.

Thanks
Narumi

I have been in martial arts for almost two years now and this week I witnessed my sensei get upset with another student for the first time. The student had been working hard for two hours as a Uke (reciever). His defense was being tired. The Sensei wanted his actions to be convincing, then he told him with profanity that he wanted no excuses and walked out of the dojo with no closure, just up and left.

I was interested in kung fu and I have a few questions about it Once you start kung fu what kind of exorcises do you do and can u not do them if your out of shape Also once you get good at it how good are you when someone attacks you and you attack them back, How many years does it take to get a black belt? What is it focused on kicks mostly? Good punches? and whats the difference between judo and kung fu?

I have been involved in jiu jitsu for about 2 years and recently started boxing. I have a serious problem with sparring. I know it’s normal to not enjoy getting hit in the face, but when someone comes at me in the ring I am having trouble thinking, counter punching, and blocking effectively. I don’t really react and end up bending forward and lose sight of the other fighter. I spend the entire time sparring worrying about what my opponent is going to do and spend no time coming up with a plan of my own. Will sparring more help me get over my fear? Or do is there something else that may help me?
