Welcome to Gaia! ::

For some reason all martial artists of the modern day have a style that incorporates how they battle. While Bruce has taught us that the best style is none, what he did know was that we all need one base to start our Catalyst of martial strength. So much like Gung Fu was to Bruce what is your style?

I myself am a proponent of freestyle wrestling. The martial power of holds and grapples meant to give pain, to stun, to cripple, to submit, and even to fatally injure(that part we are taught to avoid in scholastic combat...but if in open combat it is not surprising that I could ignore it) I am not the best. I myself am not even close to mastering it. But I am slowly on my way to becoming at least good. And if i were to face someone who simply believes they can fight and swings expecting to hit something I am quite confident in my abilities.

Unfortunately enough for me this had made me weak in giving any type of strike since I have become dependent on grapples. In everything else I have become stronger. I believe it to be quite a powerful skill and art still simply for the lack of power in any strike at the range of which I usually am once I actually begin battle. And the speed of which I must commit to it in order to simply overcome simple opponents. I could take on a fairly equally trained person in another style quite well.

So back on what is your style?

Heh in wrestling and in normal fights I found that shooting has a good deal of power to it that is usually used with blows in other fighting styles. Whereas you look for weak points and strike at them, I have to manipulate. In that usually I am down at the egs, up at the arms, around the head and shouldrs. All of those can result in a fairly decent throw. And from what I remember most people unused to being thrown into hard things get pretty messed up after the first real takedown. Others though will react quickly so I never assume.

I am not the best at shooting but if even someone else gets me on the ground and tries to handle me there I have found I am most proficient. Even if they are trying to stomp me. I don't know how I got so good at fighting while lieng down but I find it a bit more fun to see someone wh's center of gravity is all dependent on crshing me have that energy manipulated to making them fall and spring like a whip.

And if I take them I usually just try to get a hold of their head and just squeeze it till they give up out of suffocation.

Though there is one technique I know that if done correctly causes extreme abdominal pain. At the same time if done wrong it can seperate their ribs.

I can hope I will hold out well against people out here, but I haven't really faced someone with real expirience except in the scholastic ring so I would have to see.
