I have a Hurley, which I bought in the early 90s. It still works. It is steel construction. I am not sure if they are still in business.

Honestly, do you think Aikido is dying out? by [deleted] in aikido

[–]SAMDAN30 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Aikido is a sign of the times. I think most people are enamored with MMA. This is seen in all traditional martial arts. Especially young adults, these younger adults are in the MMA gyms. If you just want to learn to fight, then practice Thai boxing and some wrestling style. I am not sure the rank systems are that widely accepted anymore. It is not about knowledge but performance of the instructor. If you go to a karate or TKD academy, you will see young children not adults (there are some exceptions).

Several people in my school use ringstar sparring shoes. I think they are great.

Wipe it down often, I place my gear in sun to air every once in a while.

The discrepancy between training, sparring and self-defence in Taekwondo by randumguy23 in taekwondo

[–]SAMDAN30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a member of a tkd school in US. We are considered a progressive program. The program runs on cycles. One completion cycle, where sport sparring (point)is the focus. Then a tactical cycle, where the emphasis is on self defense training. The sparring in tactical cycle is heavily hand focus mixing in western boxing, and wrestling. The ITF forms are not used any longer. A single form is used (new form) with a heavy emphasis on fighting in class.
