[> Subject: Re: Wich art do you think is better Author: Corey Minatani [Edit] Date Posted: 08:12:23 01/12/03 Sun Could you describe the context in which you will use a particular martial art? For example, sport - self defense - exercise, etc.? You might try to describe your body type...are you agressive or passive...and so on Many of these factors come into play...

I have strong feelings about the passive. We must convince them it's OK to be aggressive when it comes to saving their or someone else's life. But maybe by definition alone, the gentle art of Aikido may be ok for them. Gentle is a fancy term for hiding the styles strong effectivness. Find someone who is good and hope this person likes them enough to participate. Ever try taking it to another level, like handgunning. Sometimes pepole respond differently to their choice of defense. Some thoughts... But don't try to change them. Work with them. Guro Ken Good Luck, Master Rose.

[> Subject: Re: Wich art do you think is better Author: Ken Smith Jr [Edit] Date Posted: 06:42:27 01/18/03 Sat Master Rose, Several shooting ranges offer information on groups that work within the handgunner mentality offering several courses on personal defense as well as shooting. They teach not a style, although their backgrounds include those things, but effective techniques and/or concepts that do help. When protecting others, there are personal security courses, by attendance or by distance education. They cover an enormous amount of information. You could work towards an asian, weapon based art. Like the filipino arts, or silat. They really do deal with the things you mentioned. Some more ideas and good luck, Guro Ken IXL-CTS 2003
