If you could master any two MA what would it be?

[qwerty]

Two and Two only!
I'd go for CCK Taiji mantis and BJJ
I love the taiji mantis philosophy of speed, precision and sticking to ones opponent, and I like the grappling and groundwork of BJJ

 

[Drose427]

Our Moo Duk Kwan TSD (using our because I know other MDK TSD schools do things differently) and BJJ.

Good Striking from TSD
Good Ground from BJJ
Good Standing Grappling from both

Taijiquan and Baguazhang

Taijiquan and Baguazhang

I see you like internal styles

Are we talking about instant mastery via genie wishes or about the real world achievements we are slowly working towards?

If it's genie wishes, I'll take judo and boxing. I'd love to have the skill without years of being slammed on the ground and punched in the head and the physical consequences thereof.

If we're talking real world, I don't think I'll ever truly master even one art, but I do have hopes of becoming a pretty good BJJ coach one day.

This is instant wishes
I guess real life has a lot of twists turns, conditioning etc.
But this is just whatever you want to learn

Hapkido and....... Hapkido...

Hapkido and....... Hapkido...

You must have a strong passion for....let me guess....hapkido?

 

[Instructor]

Lol... Don't get me started.

 

[Instructor]

Well and I list it twice because sometimes it feels like I am learning more than one style at the same time. Hapkido has a lot going on.

I guess hapkido is both a striking and grappling art

I think I'm going to change my answer to Judo and Dog Brothers martial arts. Instead of magically gaining the skill while sparing myself the being slammed and punched in the head, I can magically gain the skill while sparing myself the being slammed and hit in the head with heavy sticks. That's an even better deal!

Yes and it's possible to master each and still not be able to blend the two together in a functional package, it takes lots of work. But that is why I love it.

Yup, done Taijiquan for over 20 years and Xingyiquan for several years and baguazhang not so much but some.

 

[Spinedoc]

Well, I'm torn….I could pick Ameri-Dote……or…

Nah, I'll stick with Aikido and Iaido. Thankfully, studying both arts has given me more than enough to study for the rest of my lifetime….and then some.

 

[Dirty Dog]

Ameridote and Sinanju. Absolutely.

 

[Danny T]

Pekiti-Tirsia and Combat Submission Wrestling

 

[Buka]

I'm inclined to go the Ameridote, Sinanju route myself. Unless.....

Maybe the combo of this -

-coupled with great basketball ball handling skills. Then I could just juke down the street and knock down all kinds of bad guys with some serious panache. I might even wear a cool hat.
