    Army Martial Arts

    I am a member of the AMMA committee.
    If you what information about martial arts that available and contacts, please let me know.
    We have are 3 main arts, they are karate, kendo and both types of taekwondo.
    We also surpport other martial artist from other styles, we will surpport you with advise and maybe money no matter what your art.
    We have had a number of people competing all over the world in all types of martial arts.
    We have MMA and kickboxing coming in, or though the MMA is more combat grappling.
    This to get it past the sport control board, they have a team manager and captain.
    But i am sure that if all you guys joined up and did your bit, it would develop in the right direction.
    As for kickboxing it is at early stages, but looking good. it helps that all the kickboxing groups are trying to make a single governing body.

    Would love to hear from all martial artist out there to see what we can do to surpport you all.

    "facious".....is that a sex act because it has no other meaning; and you presumably mean "practising". You're a pedantophile aren't you?

    It is a sex act, you got me. I thought the thread was about "Marital Aids".

    "pedantophile" - someone who loves walking?

    Why taekwondo?

    It's not even a bad banda-copy of Karate.

    Why not teach something that might be useful and work in a real situation ?

    Taekwondo because it has a sport side to it.
    It is an Olympic event and one of the most practiced martial arts in the world.
    Some of the best K1 fighters have a history in TKD.
    Also i read in a MMA magazine only last month that alot of MMA fighters are taking up TKD.
    The problem with TKD is to find a good instructor/club, but i think that goes with all martial arts.
    Its not hard to get people time out of work if they come back with medals, after all that's what CO'S like.
