I like Martial Arts alot it is a good skill to utilize. It has many reasons for its use. Mainly for self defense, but it can be much much more. A way of life, a sport, a good way to stay in shape. However you see it it is still a great thing to learn and share with your fellow friends. It has helped me in my life, it has helped me find clarity where other things could not. I would mainly see it as a sport to me, I would only use it to defend myself if there was no other option. Even though I am a martial artist I like to resolve a conflict with words before I use my fists. That is what you would call discipline. You need to know discipline aswell, or atleast most people would agree with me. If people who were skilled in martial arts didn't have discipline there would be alot more bloody noses and broken bones I assure you. I think people who don't use martial arts the wrong way give it a bad rep. Don't get me wrong it is a good self defense tool but, it shouldn't be used aggressively.(Attacking someone for no reason, or because your angry. etc.) So I shared my point of view on my favorite hobby and I know some people on here study martial arts aswell and I would like you to give your opinions too.
