then i stumbled into wt, wingtsun, and i would guess i found what i wanted long time ago, with aikido beeing a very good preparation. you simply train your muscles to react to a force thrown at you by themselves, you learn to watch what your body is doing while he attacks an opponent who decides with his actions how you beat him beeing formed by his energy. fun is an understatement.

Looks up Xian Yi (which akido decended from) It is one of the three Chinese internal arts, along with the Tai Chi's and Bagua. Seems like what you are looking for | ||

Later on when I was about 20 I've gotten interested in MMA through some friends, and I started training Muay Thai in a club + BJJ with a blue belt friend. Nowadays I'm training almost everyday and I'm preparing myself for my first amateur Muay Thai fight. | ||

Then I moved and the new city didn't offer anything close to the training I was used to :-( Haven't done anything for 2 years but just now tried some introductory muai thai on a trip and now I am determined to resume (kick)boxing once I am home again. | ||

My signature move is the kimura. Crosstrain Strikeforce too. After 15 seconds in my guard you'd be tapping faster than a morse code operator trying to tell a train the bridge is out. | ||
