Oddly enough I'm going to China on Thursday to study Shaolin and San Da. Only for a couple of months though.
Mixing the best parts of all martial arts works excellently hence Mixed Martial Arts being the most dominant fighting style.

meh, dominant? isnt it more towards how long the person has trained for and experience, how hard they train and loyalty to the style? im 1 to talk but i dont think 1 thing is dominant.
Most mma today is still not truley fully mixed, if you watch mma events most people have there own speciality, whether it be stand up or ground work, but i do agree to be truley dominant you need knowledge in both.
God. I really need to get back to playing Judo.
What? I don't consider myself a Judoka, I certainly don't "do" Judo, it just seems the right verb, you know? describes it as a sport, and doesn't offend those who are serious about it by including me, a dabbler, in their ranks rofl.

Achieved Shodan in Karate, age 11. Then the Sensei got diagnosed with cancer so had to shut down the dojo. Currently looking in to starting up again but with a different discipline.
Yes but I could never say "I Judo" in the same way I can say "I Box" it just seems to sound wrong.
Was anyone else at the Jitsu Randori nationals in Telford this weekend?

I've heard that be said about Krav Maga as well.
Why wouldn't they be classed as Martial Arts?
