hi, my college is ofering judo, karate, taekwondo, jujitsu and kung fu. the truth is that i want to try them all, but dont really know the driffrence between them, i know that jujitsu and judu are really close and touchy and that kinda seperates them from the rest. which do u think is most fun, useful in real life, hardest, easyest, or just better for any reason. thanx|||i think none of this is the most lethal form of art...
the best is farting...
learn it n try practising it...
just a single fart is enough to keep ur enemies miles away from u...
so go on farting!!!!|||In real life most people DONT know how to fight so it makes easier to knock em out on their feet quick so Id take Kung Fu or Karate over Jujitsu anyday. Jujitsu is not necessary. Its only useful for fighting a wrestler and thats 1% of the case. Tae Kwon Do has a poor defense system. Report Abuse
|||it depends on your body type for example if your really strong in your upper body then i would suggest Judo,and Jiu Jitsu, also karate depending on what sub-style, but if your stronger in your legs and not that great with your arms I%26#039;d say Karate and TaeKwonDo would suit you, if your strong in both then a majority of Kung Fu styles would appeal. best thing for you would be to try all of them and then decide which one you like|||I am a practicing Karate 4th Dan In Goju-Ryu,but must admit for actual combat and defense Krav Maga is the best all around martial art I have ever trained in I have been around all most the world in the military,and have seen some amazing Martial Artist.|||Judo - Good for grappling and some striking defence however many schools overemphasize sport training as opposed to real-world training
Karate - Depends on the style really, some are horrible, some are great. Check it out for yourself.
TaeKwonDo - Mainly uses feet. Many school overemphasize sport training more than any other style. Again like karate it depends on the style.
JiuJitsu - Generally pretty good but again it depends on the school and style. Most schools do both grappling and striking.
KungFu - is a word generally used to describe a segment of Chinese martial arts. The northern styles tend to emphasize hard, direct movements, while the southern styles are more internal and deal more with flow. Some good styles are WingChun, HungGar, northern long fist, mantis (southern and northern). But there are VERY MANY KungFu styles.
We need more detailed info on specifically which styles of these martial arts they are before we can help any further.|||In answer to your question none of them are better than the others, they all have their strengths and weaknesses. What makes a style good is the instructor you have, how it is trained, and how much you put into it. It is unrealistic for me to explain all the differances, because especially with karate and kung fu, you have numerous sub styles that people lump under karate and kung fu.
For example Karate. There are three main branches. The original Okinawin, The Japanese styles that developed from the Okinawin styles, and the Hybred American Styles. The Okinawin styles tend to be less flashy, and have more realistic self defense oriented motions. The Japanese styles focus more on the sporting aspect, but if taught right can serve very well for self defense. The American styles are generally a hybred, and run the range from very good to p*** poor. So then we get into even finer detail. Most Okinawin styles have similarities but also differ. Some stress hand techniques more than feet. Some are considered hard and others soft, and some are a blend of the two. Some focus more on closed hand strikes and others on open hand strikes. If you can find out the actual style of karate, kung fu, etc and ask about them, chances are you will get a much more specific answer.
All of the Martial Arts you mention can be very effective if taught and trained correctly, which means with contact and realistic training. Your body type might lend itself better to one than the other. Many will tell you one over the other because of what they train. I only use karate because it is what I am most familiar with. I feel it is no better than any other style mentioned, just what I am most familiar with. Feel free to E-mail me and maybe I can get more in depth.
Edit: Jerry L and Joey are both missing the point, as well as enough experiance to trash other styles.|||In my opinion, it%26#039;s all good. choose. Martial arts have a long history, the bad styles have been abandoned by time.
I personally love kung-fu the most, and there is a video support my choice:
http://www.wushuing.com/2008/03/shaolin-...|||take judo|||Wu shu is best. Some mistakenly call it kung fu or gung fu. In Chinese, wu means martial, military, or war, and shu means arts or skills. Kung means work, and fu means master. Technically, one achieves kung fu in any field, e.g. an emperor%26#039;s chef achieved it in cooking, and I did in painting. All the moves in karate and in tae kwan do are found in various wu shu styles, and wu shu has much more not in these japanese and Korean styles too. Jiu jitsu is an older grappling style that is less efficient than striking styles mentioned. Judo is a more modern style derived from jiu jitsu.|||How can you see Ju-Jitsu and Kung Fu are not affective. Have you never seen Bruce Lee Joey. Also, how can you say Tae-kwondo is affective when they don%26#039;t even allow head shots in sparring? I do Ju-Jitsu and it is a realy dynamic art which is centuries old but has broken free of tradition. These days it is really affective for street self defence. So do Ju-Jitsu and Karate that way you get the striking and grappling abilities and will make you a more rounded martial artist. Sport Taekwondo is a waist of time but if taught properly it is truly awesome.|||take jujitsu and taekwondo, but you should really get into Jeet kune do im telling u you can become somthing like bruce lee|||I%26#039;ve tried both taekwondo and karate, I%26#039;ve found karate the best. It was straight forward with it%26#039;s structure, katas, weaponry, fighting etc with no forced emphasis on competitions and rushing you to grade (well the style I do only grades once a year).
I found with taekwondo, there was a BIG push for competition, and if you didn%26#039;t want to compete, you weren%26#039;t really included in classes. Also they incorporate a lot of flashy and non-useful techniques. Basically I found self defence wise, karate is a lot more superior.
But that is my own opionion and what I%26#039;ve learnt at the club I%26#039;m at. They concentrate a lot on street self defence when we%26#039;re not preparing for a grading. Everything is the basic of basics and the most effective techniques with next to no effort or time needed.|||I鈥檓 not an expert, but in my opinion karate is a laugh, good thing to get in to... competitions etc. But if you want to learn how to protect yourself you should pick jujitsu.|||The %26quot;what%26#039;s best%26quot; question always leads to the answer %26quot;best for what?%26quot;. If you want to learn defense, Judo and Jujitsu will be most useful soonest. The others are useful, too, but take longer to learn enough to be effective.
As for what%26#039;s most fun, that depends on what you like to do. For me, I would love Judo. You spend most of your time actively practicing your art with a partner--you%26#039;re either throwing or being thrown--and the tournaments are a hoot. If you%26#039;re interested in unique and interesting body movements, take the Kung Fu (you%26#039;ll be amazed at what your body can do). I%26#039;m not personally fond of Karate, as I found the standing in line practicing punching and kicking the air to be boring, and I didn%26#039;t much care for kumite sparring. You however, might love it, as many of my friends have. Tae Kwon Do is very athletic, and you will learn to jump as you%26#039;ve never jumped before, plus you%26#039;ll acquire great foot speed. However, the same issues I found in Karate are also present in this art.
In the end, it%26#039;s really a matter of what appeals to you personally. Why don%26#039;t you try sitting in on a class or two of each, talk to some of the students and instructor(s), and see what you like? That way you can make an informed choice instead of relying on our (biased) opinions.
Good luck and enjoy!|||it depend on the master nd the style you have to give more information , each one is good|||All martial arts are good , there is no %26quot;best%26quot;style of fighting , it all depend of how you practicing . If you take training seriously , and try to develop skill in a way that you may use the techniqyes in a real life situation , then, is no mater what you train, everything will work for you. In other words, the Individual will make the the style %26quot;good%26quot; or work for him - not, which is the best style of martial arts.A particular style of martial arts will be useless if the practitioner is not fit, flexible and skilled.|||judo but they are all tae kwon do and others are good but take a long time to develop your fighting skills in those arts in judo you can develop very fast.|||Hi!!....I do karate and in my opinion it%26#039;s the best martial art in the world!!...next year I%26#039;ll become black belt!!I%26#039;m looking forward to become black belt!!

good evening from Milan!!|||jujitsu and king fu arent that practical.
karate and tae kwon do are okay, but not great. the main difference between them is those two is that tae kwon do is more a kicking martial art then karate.
but all of them have things about them that are pointless and dont make sense for real fighting situations.|||MuayThai|||I do Karate, am 14 and have a brown belt, one black stripe (2 more belts til black!) I%26#039;ve done it for 5 years. I can sweep people on the floor, wind adults, sweep ADULTS on the floor and deffinitely know how to defend myself! My answer: DO KARATE! I know a person with a black belt in Tae-KwonDoe, she%26#039;s rubbish! I could take her down when I was an Orange belt! (she wasn%26#039;t too happy! and ny the way, that%26#039;s only the third belt in Karate!) It%26#039;s really fun. I would never give it up! As for Juditsu and Kungfu, I wouldn%26#039;t know.

An aikido master, judo master and karate master meet for a battle. Who wins?
Assume all have similar motivations to fight, all are top fighters in their own skill. How would each define winning? How would you? Who wins the battle? I know I could have posted this in sports/martial arts, but I%26#039;m interested in philosphical answers. Thanks!|||Silly Question! Taking your assumptions as real.The skills as equal.{Assumptions are the mothers of all screwups}.Winning in a physical battle,is always defined as defeating your opponent. The winner in all of these battles, is the one Who has the most speed in striking!Although many people have similar body strength.all fighters or athletes have different speeds in running ,or striking.That is why Olympic records are kept.Speed ,U are born with. Bruce Lee was known for his speed.He who strikes or defends fastest will win.What is silly is that this is an Apples and Oranges Question!Physical versus Philisophical!??|||A Stav master! Since none of them have probably ever heard of it! (really though, check it out! It%26#039;s a runic martial art from Scandinavia. But if you find a person riding it off as a racist agenda either run screaming or kick their ***!!)|||This is a quote about swordsmanship but it can be taken for any form of martial arts (Judo, Aikido, Karate, Etc..) even ones that do not use weapons. This is a philophical thing and it is from the movie hero.
Here it is:
%26quot;It just dawned on me! This scroll of Broken Sword%26#039;s isn%26#039;t about sword technique but about swordsmanship%26#039;s ultimate ideal. Swordsmanship%26#039;s first achievement is the unity of man and sword. Once this unity is attained, even a blade of grass can be a weapon. The second achievement is when the sword exists in one%26#039;s heart when absent from one%26#039;s hand. One can strike an enemy at 100 paces, even with bare hands. Swordsmanship%26#039;s ultimate achievement is the absence of the sword in both hand and heart. The swordsman is at peace with the rest of the world. He vows not to kill and to bring peace to mankind.%26quot; - King of Qin
So basically a true master of any martial arts doesnt fight in the first place. The have no hatred in there hearts even for those that harm them or others. They use compassion instead of hate.
The best example of this is the buddhist quote:

What is the best way to excel in judo as a novice ?
Go to the dojo as often as you can. Train with higher ranked and bigger uke%26#039;s as much as you can. And listen to your sensei and higher ranked members. They have alot they can teach you.
Some have a thinking bases of competition style and others are very Kata technique thinkers. Learn both... But if you do plan on competing in tournaments make sure you get someone with fihgting experience show you counters and variations on throws to make them more suitable for competition.
I trained for over 12 years then took a while off. I recently got back into it a few months ago and found that by going at least 2-3 days a week and working with the more experienced people I have gotten back up to 75%. In another few months I will be 100%

As for your question Judo can be extremly effective on the street for self defense. Unlike what another person answered, many Judo throws leave you upright, and I can garuntee getting dumped on your head on pavement, will pretty much ruin your day.
When are people going to get it through their head it is not the style, it is the way you are taught and how you train. A lousy BJJ person is going to get hurt by a Karate Ka and vise versa.|||A well executed judo throw onto pavement could seriously mess someone up. Broken arms/wrists, skull fracture.
The only problem is 9 times out of 10 you also end up on the ground. Most street fights are never one on one, and you really don%26#039;t want to be on the ground when the guy you just slammed buddy comes kicking at your head.
People on here who %26quot;Do MMA%26quot; clearly don%26#039;t know jack sh*t about Judo.
I also train in MMA, but did Judo extensively before, and it has helped my ground and pound IMMENSELY!
And just look at Shinya Aoki, he has a Judo background and he is a submission wizard.|||I don%26#039;t know why MMA fighters feel the need to bad mouth other arts. JUDO is very practical and very good for self defense. I have used Judo throws several times in certain situations and they have never failed me.

In a fight you need to incapacitate your opponent, get him to submit or (preferably) get him to run away.
Judo is very effective at getting people to run away.|||i do hapkido and it has a lot of similar throws and ive used some of them in fights outside competition and sparing. One time i told a dude punch me so i blocked and did a hapkido throw which i think is called a uchimata in judo|||For example, Uchi Mata Will be more than enough to finish a fight in the street.

I'm considering joining a judo school. Is it wrong to wear a black belt?
If you have a black belt from a recognized martial art, let your instructor know. He or she will decide if you are allowed to wear your belt, but either way, you should be recognized as a black belt holder from your previous study. Keep in mind, however, that if your previous style was NOT Judo, you will still be starting %26quot;at the beginning%26quot;, so to speak. Your prior martial arts experience MAY allow your instructor to move you along more rapidly than some of the other students, but you will still be required to train in and learn all knowledge of the lower ranks before you are allowed to progress beyond your current standing as a black belt holder.|||They%26#039;ll supply you with a belt.
Unless you%26#039;re a JUDO black belt, you probably shouldn%26#039;t wear one to the club.
Your rank in one style/school/federation carries only over to other dojo that are under said style/school/federation. So if you have a Karate black belt or something, it doesn%26#039;t count toward your Judo belt.
If you have no previous martial arts experience, and really don%26#039;t know if it%26#039;s a good idea or not to wear a black belt, just try it out. You might make some friends.|||The instructor I have now I used to compete against so he knew I had a black belt and he let%26#039;s me wear it, but I did talk to him about it before I joined his Dojo, so just go talk to the instructor and see what he says, hope this helps and good luck.|||If you are currently a black belt in a non-judo school, it is best to ask your current instructor out of respect. Advised that you are joining a judo school.
At the judo school, also advised the instructor that you are a black belt in another school. If the Judo instructor say it is okay to wear the black belt, you have your blessing.|||Yes, it is wrong. Your belt will be %26quot;awarded%26quot; to you by your teacher (although you will have to pay for it). If you are a beginner, then you will receive a white belt. Wearing the proper belt color is important. It tells both your training partners as well as your teacher and sparring partners what level you have reached in your study.|||Whenever joining a new style, it is a matter of respect to wear a white belt. If the head of the school thinks that you deserve a different belt he will award it to you.|||Go ahead and wear the black belt and challenge their black belts. If you can defeat them then you may deserve the belt.

How can i learn really well the grading syllabus in judo for 1st mon to 18th mon?
i started a year ago, best in my club i am a red belt 3rd mon and can beat yellow belts and orange belts etc and have been challenged to learn up to my brown belt how do i do this? any help would be very helpful and i would be very grateful|||Hello , the only way to learn it is through repetition, but what does help in learning the japanese names for the techniques is to learn what the separate words mean. eg. Yoko = side , this will help with yoko-guruma (side wheel) or yoko-otoshi (side drop) or yoko-shiho-gatame (side four quarters hold) etc etc..
There is no need to learn up to 18th mon straight away because you can only grade 1 mon in every 3 months anyway, so just learn 2 or 3 mons at a time and learn them well.|||Practice and repitition. At my club I probably have the best memory and so memorizing a grading syllabus is pretty easy. To help the other people that might not remember as well I just practice the techniques over and over. This should be done anyways but it%26#039;s the only way to remember and be proficient with the contents of your grading syllabus.|||Are you studying Japanese Judo or Korean Yudo?
Because there is no %26#039;mon%26#039; ranking in Judo. Its %26#039;kyu%26#039;.
Are you a member of the USJA (United States Judo Association) or the USJF (United States Judo Federation)?
These two organizations have all the promotion requirements spelled out in the students and instructors handbooks.
