Wanted to try out this effect. This is some very old footage, some newer footage, and some in between footage of different aspects of my exploration of the martial arts. The martial arts are a catch 22 - meaning that when you get into the martial arts, the only people you'll really get into "fights" with are other martial artists... in a grown up sense, it's all kind of silly when you get down to it. However, martial arts can develop into a much deeper meaning for people who put in the time and effort to get decent at them. This video looks at some of the arts I got decent with. I feel that my best skills are probably in kali and in just good old fashioned American boxing. I'm still trying to improve my skills in arts like Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu and even still with my ground game. So here's my "video-esque" romp through the martial arts world... I had some good times. Hope you all enjoy.
