Martial Arts Sanda
Martial Arts Sanda
What martial art is best for me?


I am 5'10 and 168 pounds. I have been in taekwondo for 4 and 1/2 years and I am currently a red belt and will receive my black this year. I have taken about 6 months of kickboxing. My goal is not to lose weight but more to self defense and becoming a smart fighter. In my area I don't have many martial arts.

These are the MA in my area.
1.)San Shou/Sanda ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=3r55mxK2xKc ) This is basically Chinese free fighting that uses Punches/Kicks/Throws.
1.)Judo
3.)Kickboxing

There isn't BJJ or JJ sadly... -.-

Please pick out of the list only. If you have another suggestion mention it after you suggest from the list. Thanks :)

Judo would be fantastic for you if you want to learn another aspect of the game. The throws, standing grappling, and submissions in Judo will compliment your striking nicely in my opinion.

I took Tae Kwon Do for ages and I still have killer kicks, good balance and speed, and good footwork. I train in different arts now, but TKD is a big part of my fighting foundation.

I would definitely stick with the TKD if you can - do plenty of sparring and not just against TKD fighters - enter some open tournaments to see how you fare, and what you need to work on. One thing I would warn you about is good boxers. TKD doesn't generally teach you to protect your head against a skilled boxer or close-range attacker. Talk to your instructor about entering some open comps and see what kind of feedback you get.

Good luck.

    “But these traditional guys are just getting ignored by others who are more forward thinking. That’s as it should be. Sanda/sanshou is great and I hope it becomes more popular. MMA/BJJ is slowly taking root here and in China as the next generation once again gets tired of the secrets and BS from the traditionalists, just like their grandfathers did around 1911.”

    Dave I gotta beg to differ on this one point. I agree on many points about cloistered IMA folks who need to get out and get around.

    But MMA/BJJ is not martial arts. Sanda/Sanshou is not martial arts. These are sports. They cross over some of the same ground, but not very much.

    They have much more in common with hockey and ping pong than they do with martial arts.

    Sports are harder, require more effort, are more competitive, require more fitness, demand more of your time, require better coaching and have demand for much more precise skills.

    Martial arts is a much wider field, and much easier to practice and learn.

    You can do sports and martial arts individually but you won't find much connection between them.

    It's not a criticism of martial arts, but bottom line is that sports are a much more intense and demanding endeavor that require much higher fitness and skill.

    A little old lady can DO martial arts, as can a young child or a average man/woman.

    Sports require a competition with a winner and loser. Little old lady will lose every time.

    See what I mean? I believe MMA is the wrong acronym, because it's a sport that has nothing to do with martial arts. NHB is a MUCH better term for what goes on in the cage.

    As for martial artists sparring each other more often, that's a great idea, and should be encouraged. But sparring is only one of many drills within CMA, whereas sparring is the GOAL of a sport. This distinction is very very important and shouldn't be glossed over, in my opinion.

    Just my personal axe to grind, nice post.

    Thanks,
