What's Going On?

Krav Maga is not very wide spread here.
From what I heard it's a different category of arts. While Judo, Ju-jitso, Karate, Aikido and all those are traditional martial arts with modern rules for competitve fighting, Krav Maga is plain brutal self defense without rules or sports ambitions. It's probably highly effective and it's definitely something I'd like to study (there's just barely any schools here teaching it), but it's a different category of fighting.

you err on jujitsu. that was always meant to be fighting.only until mma and bjj, which had competition but always had the full art and still does if the coach or sensei cares to know or teach it. judo is in essence jujitsu.

no karate is a martial art and judo is what you do to make a bagel.

Oh well I'm still not getting that joke. :-(

Jui Jitsu has been used for competitive fighting in Germany since the 1920s, since the first people in Germany started learning Jui-Jitsu. And most martial arts turned into modern competitive sports rather than the traditional battle and self defense systems only at the beginning of the 20s century. So basically Jui-Jitsu isn't different from the others.

yes and no, jj includes what you already do, kendo, that has always been that way but the comptetion side hasn't been around that long its new. the old way of grappling was never done without strikes. when I do jj we always train for the stikes to come. we never just do the stuff that ONLY works on the mat. we train for the real deal. ie its illegal in naga to strike from the guard, mma and jj allow that.

I signed up for a Japanese class in college, but the computer program was way more advanced than for a beginner. However, once I learn more I will use it! Lucky me. I also have a book on Japanese grammar, and I have another self teaching program for beginners. I am working on the book right now.

i wonder, why my Nissan has a crank speed sensor, a tranny input shaft speed sensor and a vss at the out put of the tranny and down the drive shaft a rear wheel speed sensor for the abs. and its has an output shaft speed sensor. just so the pcm knows what gear i am in? it kicked on a code for the vss when it went bad.

Sheeeesh Edward that seems annoyingly complicated! And as far as the door- keep laughing! :D

 

[Claudya]

Too many things to do, too little time. Might have to skip training tonnight. :-(

Sounds very interesting!

All I can say in Japanese is: Nihon-go ga wakarimasen... (which is supposed to be, I don't speak Japanese...)
