martial arts, you often learn street self defence (though the quality and reality does vary), fighting sports train for the ring.
both have cross overs... in technique, but someone can stop the fight in the ring, on the street no one is there to ring a bell and say stop. Art of fighting is to cover your ass when the proverbial crap hits the fan and you are willing to do what is neccessary to survive.

Have to say I always chuckle when I see this used to promote a style or club. Its a bit like "our club doesn't compete because our techniques are too dangerous" or "our system was developed to allow smaller people defeat bigger opponents" as if all the rest of the styles only work if your bigger than the person who is attacking you

yup and i'm tired of some people being deluded that a couple of lessons in muay thai, tae kwon do and other ring/sport arts will make em invincible in a street fight. real street violence is a terrifying if not more than stepping into a ring where one is conditioned to deal with that reality.

Your hilarious. Delusions are what happens when you dont do full contact sparring with non compliant partners 2-3 times a week, according to your advertisment your club only trains once a week... nuff said.

This doesn't make any sense.

This is a discussion board, you posted a suggestion and I'm discussing it, there is no need to take it as a personal attack. Appologies if it came across as passive aggressive but it was just an attempt at being diplomatic. If you don't want to discuss martial arts then don't post

Your dead right, I know nothing of your training methods but I assume questions are frowned upon lol

Henry Minogue

by all means question, i was just giving my interpretation of the question posed.

This is filipino martial arts we train in Limerick. I dont have any videos of the Kung-Fu I train.

Ok, in your original post you implied that the art you train is better for self defense than others because arts that are tested in a ring have a ref to 'stop' the fight whereas your 'street' style cannot be stopped.

How can you claim this if you haven't tested your techniques against a non compliant opponent?

Obviously this is for the "empty hand" element that is promoted on the website you listed.

kinda hard to do some of the techiques when the involve eye pokes, and other nice things.
kung fu, usually approaches testing through sensitivity skills, i could talk about it for ages but suffice to say, working on sensitivity,conditioning, hitting pads and other types of training is how some of the pratices in kung fu have worked for the last couple of hundred years.

So the techniques are too dangerous to practice full contact?

mmmm. dont know what you're getting at there Neozues. yeah, my name is "harry" to "my friends." as regards the sobriquet, i'm neither a "prince nor a pretender", I'm a pretty frank and straightforward type of guy.

i know Sensei/Sifu Brian did train kickboxing with Master PJ Bennis as did a lot of others in limerick, all i was quoting was the styles of martial arts Sensei/Sifu Brian was teaching in the club at the time.

We are both currently teaching in the Franciscan Church, opposite Dunnes Stores, Henry st. I'm teaching Filipino martial arts while Brian is teaching Kung-fu and japanese martial arts & kobudo.
