What marcial art?

Question

What marcial art would help me fight like(even if it sounds inmature) Naruto but nor exagerated, here there is no ninjutsu but what are some similars art karate, kung fu...?

Answer 1

The thing is that ALL the Martial Arts have similar principles to them, but you're ont gonna find a Martial art that's gonna show you how to fight like an Anime character because they only use the NAME of the discipline just as reference.

very little of what you see on these anime shows are real, there's no magic or mystic abilities that you're gonna study.

they ALL have their strengths and weaknesses so therefore not one single discipline is better than another, so it comes down to the individual and his or her own training ethics to really determine how good he or she has learned the discipline they have chosen. If one has a good training ethic, then one can become a good Martial Artist, but if one has a poor training ethic and does not train on a regular basis, then they will be a poor Martial Artist; the discipline is only as good as the individual who uses it.

but what you WILL study is techniquesthat you'll be able to use to defend yourself, and if the Martial Art you wind up studying is taught with practical application, you'll be that much more prepared to defend yourself against someone who is intending to hurt or kill you.

Bottom line is, what you see in these Anime TV shows, movies, or live action movies are not real.

In anime shows or movies, the action is just for dramatics to make for a better story, and the same goes for a live action movie, only the fights are choreographed to minimize the chance for injury to the actors and stunt men, so you shouldn't take what you see as serious.

Martial Arts in truth is not about fighting, it is the end result, but it's more about helping people and being a better person.

Martial Arts help the indivdual to be a better person and be a more complete person.

all you need to do is research the schools that're local to you, No one here can tell you which one is "best" or which discipline is going to fit you best. just check the your local phone book or internet search engines to find local schools.

find at least three schools that interest you the most, and then attend classes from each school to watch the instructors interact with the students and their training.

once you find the one school that interests you the most out of those three, ask the instructor(s) about some trial classes to see if you like the school, if you do then enroll in the class.

choosing a Martial Art is about personal choice. What is it that YOU want to get out of studying Martial Arts for YOUR OWN PERSONAL BENEFIT?

You just need to find a Martial Arts School that will provide a safe, friendly, "family like" environment for you and that the instructor(s) are going to help you become the best Martial Artist that you can become. What matters is that you feel comfortable in the classes (and like the classes) and feel comfortable that the instructor (and the instructor's TEACHING style and not the discipline itself) can properly teach you self defense without the "smoke and mirrors" .

Answer 2

A good well rounded style would be freestyle Karate.You will learn stand up,ground,grappling and weapons.What a lot of people don't understand is that freestyle Karate is about practical street defence not who can kick the highest or punch a pad the hardest.It's definitely not a sport martial art like TKD or BJJ.The motto of my style is the best of everything in progression.Basically that means we don't care where the technique comes from we improve it and integrate it into our style while still maintaining tradition as do most freestyle Karate's.
The hardest thing is finding a good experienced instructor.I would recommend Bushi Kai or Zen Do Kai, but if your not in Australia or New Zealand you may have some difficulty finding some one who teaches these styles.These styles also usually have separate classes available to everyone in Muay Thai and BJJ/Submission/Shoot wrestling.If you can't find one of these i would suggest Kempo or Enshin or another freestyle Karate.

Answer 3

Yeah, kenpo is a pretty good answer to your question. Very exciting martial art with heavy emphasis on striking.

May I suggest though, that if you are looking for a more effective self-defense, try academies that cross-train in a blend of grappling and striking techniques (aka mixed martial arts). Basically, submission wrestling/kickboxing has been shown to be one of the most effective blends of "real fighting." Try for example, jiu-jitsu, muy thai, krav maga. All that kung fu stuff usually gets you nowhere in a real street fight unless you are extremely skilled or fighting a weak opponent.

Answer 4

Ninjitsu is a dead art. I don't know how Naruto fights. There are many fine arts that you should consider. They are basically divided into 2 broad categories, striking & grappling. Here is a brief summary:

Striking: Tae Kwon Do. Karate, Shaolin boxing
Good: Can handle multiple attackers, can engage at long range, enables you to be pro active when necessary.
Not so good: Ground, hard to control an attacker without inflicting serious injury.

Grappling: Hapkido, Judo, etc.
Good: effective in close, good on the ground, can control an attacker without inflicting serious injury.
Not so Good: Not good at long range, you must wait for the attacker to make the 1st move. Not effective against multiple attackers.

The really important thing is to find a good instructor.

Answer 5

Wushu(Chinese martial art), Jeet-kung-do(founder Bruce Lee), Vo-Vi-Nam(Vietnamese martial art), Hwoang(Korean martial art), and Muay-Chai(Thailand martial art).

Answer 6

I'd say Kenpo, but u do know that Naruto is fake and his moves are not only physically impossible, but also would not be effective in real life.

Answer 7

You will have to find a dojo for yourself on Fantasy Island (that reference is probably before your time.)

Animated characters do not have to worry about such trivial things as:

Gravity,
Fatigue,
Opposition,
Resistance,
Friction,
Inertia,
Momentum,
and the like.

Answer 8

Kenpo is martial arts and street fighting.
