Martial Arts and the Trini
« on: February 26, 2007, 02:05:30 PM »
After about 4 hours straght, I could see why people like the naruto so much. But What I want to ask is if anybody actually check out any source of nin-jitsui training. Naruto is a nice thing, if you actually into nin-jitsui. And since you have to be learning some kind of style these days to be cool, I wondering if anybody find a master to teach them. I had a friend who find a master and was learning it for about two years or so, but the man does travel plenty, so it is a real off and on kind of thing. And besides that, I not sure how much you could trust a master in Trinidad.

But it seem to be okay, and not s--t-jitsui, that the man was teaching, because the naruto-in- traing manage to manhandle some shotokan purple belts real easy. And before he do the thing he was a kind a nerd, and now he does be doing pull-up on the water-tank.

If anybody know where you could get real credible, certifiable training tell meh nah, before I spend a set of money to get in gung-fu.

I'm confused.

This has nothing to do with movies, and I was going to boot it over to the Anime thread, until I read this more thoroughly and realised that this actually has nothing to do with the Naruto show...at all.

Nikkodemus, what exactly is the purpose of this thread?
I mean, you post it in the wrong section, you start it off as if you were asking a question about Naruto, then completely go off-topic and ask if anybody did any research on ninjitsu, and end it off by going off-topic AGAIN and asked if anybody knows where to get kung-fu certification.

I really, really hate to sound mean, but whenever you post, why don't you just get to the point?
Really, for all of that talk, all you could've asked was, "Does anybody know where I can get martial arts training?"

Kicked over to the Rum Shop.

Fair warning, though....if you're entering Martial Arts just because it looked impressive on TV and think that in no time flat, you'd be chucking shurikens at random vagrants on Frederick Street, you're in for some serious disappointment.

To me, Martial Arts requires an extreme form of discipline and years of practice.
That's why martial artists are among the most respected people in the world...they literally busted their asses getting where they are today.

So, if you're entering this field, fair warning, it's going to be hard, it's going to be difficult, and you will want out a lot if you're not dedicated. Go in there only if it's something you genuinely want to pursue, and you're willing to go through all kinds of pressure to do so.

I do martial arts, and I do it with the knowledge that, its not a sport or something for fun. Its to fight, and the purpose of ANY fight is to defeat the opponent....and well the only true way to defeat someone...is to kill

So it is indeed a serious thing and its not fun and games...

If you find it looks cool and want to try and learn to summon big frog and stuff...stick to watching tv

Not necessarily true.
Many martial arts were developed NOT to actually fight and kill, but rather, as self-defense.
As a matter of fact, the credo of several matial arts is to never start a fight, but only use your training as a last resort. As a matter of fact, that statement originated with Traditional Karate.

For example, Monkey Fist was developed by the founder when he was jailed and observed the movements of the monkeys outside of his prison cell window. When he worked on the style, he made it an elusive/defensive art that imitates the playful movements of the monkey in evading attacks, right before taking the assailant down for his missed attack.

Crane style was also developed as a defensive art. When one of the founders of the style tried shooing away a crane with a broom, the crane did all kinds of tactics to evade getting hit by the broom. Not once did it go on the aggresive, but focused on its flexibility to avoid danger. Such was the philosophy of the Crane style.

Also, in a fictional sense, read up on Dan Hibiki, and find out why Gouken expelled him to begin with.
Dan wanted to use his skills for revenge, something that Gouken opposed. As a matter of fact, when Gouken taught Ryu and Ken his own, non-lethal form of Ansatsu-Ken, he did it so that all of the offensive, killing arts of the style were toned down in favour of less lethal, more defensive tactics.

Protojoe, I am no martial artist, but I am very sorry to say that I sorely disagree with your first statement, especially the part where you go "...and well, the only true way to defeat someone...is to kill". That is a VERY dishonorable credo, because it goes against the grain of why traditional martial arts were developed in the first place - for people to defend themselves and protect others.

well, I put it in the movie town section because the way it does have people going on about Naruto, i thought it would have had real men who practicing a little nin-jitsui on the side. so i say them woulda be the people to ask. And it does have something to do with movies, but anyhow...

Neo, people don't really kill people and thing again with the martial arts. Is modern arts that people does be using these days.

Okay, good subject? correct board? Right.

I come to a realisation that the trini man is not really a fighting man. I spend the last couple of months after i bruise some bones in my foot, trying to rehab myself, and get my-self in shape to go gung-fu. And then, I say, "I cyah go gung-fu by myself", because I would have nobody to spar with really, unless i come out to make friends.

And is while I was asking around that i realise, nobody have no kind of interest in that at all! I say dem naruto people would be in the nin-jitsui, dem say, nah. 

what about the dream to be a grandmaster? people din used to watch "kung-fu the legend continues"?

what i really looking for is any information on credible training you could get in the rarer martial arts - not shotokan.
Like kung-fu or tai-chi

These shotokan people starting to come out of the woodwork. Dey kinda dread though, eh. I see one do like a thousand knuckle push-ups. By the time i reach 20 my knuckles seriously bruised, and is real pain.

I looking for a nice kind of deep inner-power training. Anybody in anything so? Purple dragon and all i investigate, but them does do a little too much running and push-up and squats seeing that classes is only for 1 hr and is money you paying. But anybody notice that the man does open the door before you knock and it have no camera?

karatikas of trinidad, give meh some feedback, nah.

I looking for lower level physical work cause i cyah do more than 50 push up to save my life( well actually i reach the stage where i could do reps of 50 if i real push it), and i really don't want to deform my hands, nah. In my own time, cool. But when you reach in the class, i want some god quality training.

dem shotokanese does start to mutate after a while, but laertes, shat stage your partners manage to advance to?

hmmm i used to practice xuan shaoi dao kung fu and yang style tai chi for a good few years well.

under an instructor Sifu Micheal Thomas. pretty intensive training and the tai chi is a good balance of stretching and relaxation techniques. pm me if u need proper contact info.

and just to note, their are quite a few kung fu practitioners in Trinidad but not too many teach traditional style kung fu.

I doubt that. Martial Arts on the whole may not be rare down here, but specialised arts like that aren't likely to be found.

Here's a breakdown of what you may find down here, in terms of martial arts:

- Traditional Karate
- Tai Chi
- Shotokan Karate
- Muay Thai Boxing
- Aikido
- Mixed Kung Fu
