Here are a few shots from todays training, our instructor had gone to the Metallica concert in Estonia, so we felt more free.

(this move I created myself, but, if I thought of it, someone else probably already has, so I don't claim originality.

(in the first movie I demonstrate, the second is cirvis trying to learn it)

It'll be hard to master it, because it has to be very quick to catch the leg, but nobody can remain standing after it, I even tried it on one our buddy who is more than 2m tall and he fell like a kid.

p.s. That is in no way a Taekwon-do move, so no misunderstanding.
 
If you take what hurts the least you'll also learn the least.

Anyway, no one martial art is enough. Taekwon-do is very good (at least as it is taught in Europe and Latin America) for long distance fighting, tae box is close distance (as vell as sambo), judo the closest. As for me I prefer to disable an oponent before it gets very close.

I am going to take up Aikido this summer. Aikido is useless as a stand alone art and anyone who'll take it as a first martial art to learn will fail, because you already have to know all the hits and kicks to learn Aikido well, but it is ideal as an addition to any martial artist to any other martial art which has kicks, etc.
 
Although the movie Mortal Kombat paints a bad picture about martial arts (I assume anyway... lots of it looks fake and unrealistic)... I would like to know what style Subzero does. He's badass, IMO :bugeye:
 
It's the secret art of deep-freeze-your-oponent-to-death-with-liquid-nitrogen, but anyway I don't remember what style he used, but all the styles there are more circus, less a real art.

what style subzero does? He uses a tube with liquid nitrogen in it...when someone comes he just sprays liquid nitrogen...and kaboom the ultimate martial arts move...the guy is frozen.

Yea like I said it all looks staged just to make a pretty movie. The freezing... :cool:

I am more interested in taking people down instead of beating the shit out of them.
 
I think I found it.. thanks to IMDB:

François Petit is a world class martial artist who holds the title of KaiDen-Shihan, the highest title of Master in Jujitsu in the world. He also holds a 7th degree black belt in Ninjitsu, a 7th degree black belt in Karate Do, and a 3rd degree Black Belt in Judo

Jujitsu + Ninjitsu + Judo + liquid nitrogen = Sub-Zero?
 
This morning outside of our dojo. The black band on my palm is not (just) for the looks, I did a hit too hard and I think I've moved one my knuckle bone out of place, been hurting for 2 weeks now, will do an x-ray in some days.
