wulfen: Tai Chi is a bit of conundrum amongst martial artists. You'll meet some who consider it a 'true' martial art, and others who view it as a more active form of meditation.

In my view (and it is purely my personal view) it is not a true fighting style, but I admire it a lot as a meditation style. Unlike 'rougher' martial arts it can also still be practiced by elderly people and helps a lot in keeping them flexible and energetic.


wow! you're well-versed! thumbs up bouquet

anonymous1: I like the movie where Bruce Lee discovers Tai Chi, as his true style..


One of Bruce Lee's big strengths was his ability to 'borrow' different techniques and adopt them into his own style, Jeet Kune Do.

This made him a much more dangerous fighter as he wouldn't fall into 'set' techniques, which does tend to happen to the most of us during sparring.

Also, Lee was the first to integrate physical fitness training combined with scientific nutrition to aid his martial arts techniques, something that was ground breaking in his time.

anonymous1: I was describing two different places.

I'm from Venice California, that's where I was shot when I was 18, where I was stabbed, where the machine gun battles happen, and where I learned to do the duck, and run when someone has a gun.

I moved to Hawaii, and even though it's rough, I had more friends die when I was between 16, and 20 in Venice, than I have lost here in 30 years..

plainlyjune: mom enrolled me in ballet instead of martial arts cuz i was tomboyish. as she says, to make me act more refined can u be my mom?


The only thing that's stopped my daughter from climbing trees is morning sickness and the size of her belly is beginning to get awkward.

Tee hee hee.

anonymous1: Right on!

My daughter has had Ninja training; and, I'm trying to keep her interested in learning more.

I like to give her things that look inconspicuous; but, have whole arts built around them being weapons..


My daughter's nickname is the Ninja Midget, although her martial arts training came to an end a couple of years ago when she became very unwell.

But she knows enough to look after herself, she's wise enough to judge a situation well and if all else fails - short enough to get her pointy little elbow in the groin!

You're right about everything you just wrote; but, I think Bruce Lee, thought of Tai Chi, as a true martial art.

When my daughter was 10, she wrecked an older boy's balls.

I was upset with her; and, I asked her why she did it?




She said, "He tried to take down my pants, Dad."

So I told her... You're getting ICE CREAM!

Thanks mate. I did say my view re-Tai Chi was purely my own, even if it contradicts a "god's" like Bruce wink handshake
