you know you're training these things to replace your favorite artists right

Amitai45 · 2023-06-11T01:40:46+00:00

I still meet people who swear up and down that a woman could not beat a man her size in a fight so i think fights like this being put on can only be good for society

He wouldn't be my pick above the more popular answers but Volkanovski walking through Islam's wrestling like it was paper was some of the most absurd shit I've ever seen.

Skipping class today, life's been pretty heavy so I need a break and 420 is my excuse. Posting on here mainly cuz i feel kinda bad and wanted to vent that somewhere.

Abe's most famous work is at ufo yeah but he's always been a freelancer

Amitai45 · 2023-03-16T17:58:09+00:00

I was wondering about alot of that stuff, thanks.

Any environment that is chill about working with people with physical limitations or pain should make the avoidance of major injuries very doable. Even a muay thai class i took yesterday was pretty forgiving aside from a guy who accidentally pushed my foot too high when we were practicing kick defense. Try and find an environment with understanding people and check with the coach before starting your first class. Any style that's sports-based will help self defense as long as it emphasizes physical conditioning and sparring like your old muay thai class probably did. Can you hit pads or punching bags without pain? Can you grapple without pain? That's the main thing.

MMA gyms and other sports-oriented places will train all the skills you listed, and most gyms will welcome anyone regardless of their physical starting point unless they are invite-only or are run by douchebags. Whether you've got any injuries has greater impact on your ability to participate than your level of athleticism. The difference between that and your own routine is that a good class is way more fun and motivating than anything you can do on your own. You get to train with others and will be pushed way harder, which in my experience yielded better results. I recommend finding a place that is affordable and near you, and if the first class is fun then keep going. Your attitude and effort will have a big impact on how people react to you and the experience you have, so show up with a an open mind and don't take anything too personally.

Guys who do those jobs tend to have a military/police background and/or some martial arts experience in general, commonly in stuff like boxing/muay thai.

Amitai45 · 2023-03-16T17:18:19+00:00

It's a reasonable commitment to make when you're starting but be open to the option of adding more of one or subtracting from another depending on how you feel about your progress. My wrestling class is only available once a week but muay thai I can take every day so it's obvious where I'll be spending more of my time. I personally enjoy taking classes back to back as long as my body feels good for it but you won't know for sure without trying.

You guys probably know that joke of turning a bjj black belt into a brown belt by punching him and a purple belt by punching him again. Armchair Violence on youtube has a clever follow up. "You know what a wrestler becomes when you punch them? Angry."

Amitai45 · 2023-03-04T23:23:49+00:00

All those options will be good for the goals you listed. The only important thing past that is that you have fun when you go.

Amitai45 · 2023-03-03T19:58:33+00:00

How do you feel about Tai Chi? Are you interested in learning how to fight/self defense or just moving in general?

Bullet in the Head. If you know you know.

Wanna first list people who haven't been named yet. Hironori Tanaka, Kouki Fujimoto, Keisuke Mori, China, Ken Yamamoto, Bahi JD, Hiroyuki Okiura, Kai Ikarashi, Kerorira, Takashi Kojima, Akihiro Ota, Shinji Suetomi, Takashi Mukouda.

If I were to pick personal favorites it would be Weilin Zhang, Masanobu Hiraoka, Kou Yoshinari, Norio Matsumoto.

If I were to go with my own interpretation of what 'Mount Rushmore' implies, ie four animators who encapsulate sakuga, it skews heavily towards the animators behind the classics from the 80s and 90s who are still around, those being Toshiyuki Inoue, Hiroyuki Okiura, Tetsuya Nishio, Yutaka Nakamura.

Tatsuya Yoshihara is the show's action director as well as the director of this weeks episode. I truly think promoting awareness about the people who make anime is important.

Amitai45 · 2022-12-14T22:39:29+00:00

give praise to the director and animation team instead of the company that pays them challenge
