#1 Post at 28-8-2022 01:32  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Martial Arts Suggestions I've noticed a few bros here have mentioned in their reports they do martial arts. Wanted to see if y'all had any suggestions for what form of martial would be good for a total newbie to start a path on that balances fitness and practical usage for self defense. Also any suggestions on gyms or studios in HK? Thank you! Recent Ratings HK_Legend   28-8-2022 14:41   Acceptance   +5   I would agree with Kennichi. NOW, Muay Thai is the ONLY decent one left in HK.

You can do Wing Chun or any other art for years and not be a powerful fighter. Do be wary the conditioning for Muay Thai is brutal and the sparring involves knocking the hell out of each other so you will get hit and hurt while doing it. I know several masters in the New Territories they've been training their own styles all their lives and they're wary of Muay Thai fighters. It's why so many MMA fighters base their style around it.

#3 Post at 28-8-2022 22:54  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Thanks all for the feedback! Would BJJ or even like Krav Maga be good options? Or like what was mentioned those are kinda overpriced in HK? Any suggestions for actual places to go to learn Muay Thai? Interesting on the point re: triad. Funny that on a forum like this, it's Muay Thai that gets a triad proximity warning, not punting haha Recent Ratings HK_Legend   29-8-2022 09:32   Acceptance   +5   For Self-Defense, faster learning with Krav than BJJ BUT...how/when to use? Complicated.

#7 Post at 29-10-2022 02:35  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L BJJ is most practical for self defense and pretty good for fitness. You can throw in some boxing or kickboxing if you want to strike and at that point you're basically doing mma. But just BJJ is enough to learn and you don't really need a lot of striking training if you are just looking for self defense. Extremely practical for defending yourself against someone trying to punch your head off because unless they also know BJJ they'll just be thrown to the ground and locked up and be useless.
