I find...

[respectmankind]

I find my greatest strength in any form of MA I do is my "Rage Button" were I just willing make myself hate every ounce of the person I focus on (no matter who it is). Next to that, I am a big 17 year old, and with my size I have suprising grace. By grace I mean, when I just let go of thinking out my movements, I can move really natural. When I do that, I also find I feel more comfortable to go into meditational thoughts. Problem is, the gracefulness isn't quite Beauty, it is more efficent. ( i will be bringing this all to a question shortly) So, when I combine my trigger with this emptiness, and find I can do well directed, efficent, and strong attacks. I have already taken boxing and wrestling, as well as some Kung Fu (and the like). The question is, judging by that, anyone have an idea of what type of MA I should focues on. Just so people don't think I am gloating, which it sure sounds like, I also have big hold ups, such as lower body agility, fighting ability when I have not flipped teh 'switch', and severe ignorance of 'snapping' attacks. Any help?

i think you should always aim for efficiency. beauty is great if you are a ballerina, but the kung fu i have seen is fluent (and sometimes artsy when trying to get the hang of a new concept) but not beautiful. i say try to find the best school around and go to that one. if you have allot of options you may want to stick with an agressive style like baugua, wingchun, or mma's.

lower body agility? i know what you are saying, but you just need to repete your nickname over and over again while moving.

where's my beer?

I get the impression people might suggest Styles/Systems. Then you'll say yo don't have that near enough that you are willing to go. Yet you might need some ideas to look for the schools to find out that they are beyond your willing ness to get there frequently or at all.

Schools at which you should look are Yang T'ai Chi Ch'uan instruction.

What you need~ Study the stepping of a Golden- Harvest Video. And study intimidation under psychology.

But you theoretically would need techniques to which to put your strength, grace and emptiness. Samurai videos with subtitles will give you an idea of how to move at first. Bruce Lee videos would give you an idea about taking advantage of an open individual and basic striking theary and timing. you would also get a sense of timing and distanceing (ranging) from the subtitled samurai videos (the sword fights).

Very some such, perhaps might have been, likely say some, some not.

GDA-

Kung fu is beautiful and I have seen a lot of kung fu styles.I don't see why everyone thinks a style can't be beautiful to be effecticve.I have not seen one ugly kung fu style yet.

Unity-

It is not wise to train with hate as it can lead to damage to the body.I told my sifu the same thing when I first began and I was told that it is the wrong way to train.If you train with anger you do not breathe properly and you can hurt yourself internally.I have read an article about training with anger.Anger is powerful in a sense of using technique but it is uncontrolable.Your mind gets clouded and you don't concentrate well on the technique.

Let's put it this way.When a predator and prey fight they do not fight out of anger.The prey doesn't hate the predator nor does the predator hate the prey.They're just trying to do what they do every day live.When doing forms you do not have emotion,no hate,no sandness,no nothing.You're mind is a complete blank.The mind works at it's best when it is not clouded.Hate clouds your mind.Take my advice.Hate is not the way to go.I sued to train like that at the start but I got past it.

If you need a style that has rapid leg movements I would suggest a northern kung fu style.

Yes Luke! FEEL your anger!!

Sorry Northernmantis... had to be said! :)

Unity: Pick something that interests you train in it constantly. There are a ton of techniques in every art. You'll learn what works for you and what doesn't. Small man's style... big man's style... they don't exist. Just do it, and you'll glom on to the stuff that's good for you.
