Review

First and foremost, I would like to indirectly apologise to him for skipping class. He was really looking forward...but i have myself to prioritise first.

Next, just to recap my past entry about what happened in my work place about my customer who asked me if I am a martial artist...I asked him why, he said i behave differently. For more, go here.

So with that in mind, I actually skipped wushu yesterday. I was told that the aikido trial was yesterday and went there.

It was fun. The instructor was funny. Then for me, i can see a lot of gals. :P But 3 chios left so early. :(

Ok, so what did I learnt?
If I'm not wrong, we learn 4 defense techniques, 1 break fall, walk through technique and making opponent fall-kinda-thing.

Not bad huh?
Aikido is a japanese martial arts. It seems to be a peaceful martial arts that do not require much of strength but more of skills and speed. Looking at the way the 4 defense techniques works, I feel that it can be taught very easily without much 'replay'. In other words, it is very easy to learn. There is hardly much strength involves and most of the time, you control your attacker. Thus if anyone(hopefully a chio) attack you, with good skill and speed, you can actually bring her down and....you know, you know. :D

Let's get back to my customer. So what is the behavior that i show? I am still not quite sure but 1 thing I know is the way i move in the restaurant. Naturally I am using the go-through method. Some of my colleagues ask me why i like to spin around...I seriously do not know but i find it easier and more flexible to move about. :P

Well..let's talk more about other martial arts.. :D

Aikido is unlike martial arts like Taekwando, where you bring down your opponent using a throw or normal method. I can still recall how my unarmed(taekwando) instructor threw me so easily.
He asked me to stand on his right and i dunno what he did and suddenly i was thrown to his left. Also, without much effort. This throw is actually my favourite move...but i forgot how liao. Seriously, this is a cool move. So if your attacker don't know how to break fall, he could have broken a limp. However, i have been kicked by a black belt taekwando. He is using Taekwando special fast kick. Guess what..? No effect. Just emotionally hurt cos' he's my friend. lol.

Wushu
Just an art for display. More for movie making and keeping yourself healthy. If trained with passion, wushu can actually helps to increase your speed. However, for people like me who sometimes don't care about safety, it gives me a lot of injuries. lol. I skipped a lot during holidays to have my knee heal about 85%. But my lower back has not recover. It will get painful when I do rising, side or high kicks.
Actually, wushu has 2 types. One is display and the other the self-defense. So before you join wushu...be sure to ask the instructor first. In sch, wushu is goin to introduce some self-defense. :)

Walao...too lazy to continue le.

That's the end la k? :P
