what other martial arts do you practice or want to practice?

[lost]

Dude, have you been going through all threads on this forum as far back as two months? :/

I was bored and didn't want to start any new threads in fear of Eddie's finger.

[Aikijiujitsu]

I would like to continue training Aikido, I think it complements Jiu-Jitsu perfectly even though it probably isn't the best in regards to self defense. Roy Dean and Marcio Feitosa have DVDs combining the 2 I believe.

Aikido comes from Daito ryu aiki jiujitsu o sensei Morei Yoshiba was trained by Sukoku Takada he thought it was too brutal and as he going into spirituality he made a style that more fit his feelings at the time. I see alot of this combat aikido adding breaks i think its bull shit its just aiki jiujitsu.

I started my martial arts journey with San Soo Kung Fu and did that for about 6 months until Wing Chun Kung Fu caught my eye being taught at the same academy. Did that for about 3 years until I found jiu jitsu. That was 5 years ago and I'm just now starting to get back into Wing Chun. I know its not completely practical but a lot of the theory does work. Plus its actually pretty fun.

I feel wing chun is really practical ive used it sparring and it works great for me its up to the practitioner to make it work alot of forms and katas are blueprints they arent to be taking literal as fighting techniques but they are supposed to put you on the path to figure out how can i make this really work for me.

I guess saying some of it wasn't practical wasn't quite fair. I think some of the training isn't quite practical. I didn't feel like I was ready to use it in a real life situation. Maybe it was just my practice partners fault because without realizing it they would pull their punches because of fear of hitting me. Or a good possibility is I didn't put enough time into the art to fully learn what I needed to learn.
Eventhough its been 5 years I've really retained a lot of the movements and terminology which I think is awesome. I'm actually really excited to get back into it because I loved it when I was going through it.

I started tracey system kenpo with 6th dan george sewell when I was 18, I was with him for almost five years and reached 3rd brown under him. he got ill and could no longer teach, I then tried driving an hour one way every night to train with one of his balckbelts, shihan Terry Rich, who had converted to the original Ed Parker system kenpo, driving got old so then I started kickboxing with johnny holbrook and sport point fighting for him also which I did for a couple of years until I blew out my knee racing dirt bikes. the knee injury ended my standup fighting career, so I started training traditional japanese jj with 7th degree "doc" leamon stroud where I recieved my purple belt under him. life took over for a few years, married had a kid got a divorce, life. Then i helped open ABI's mma where I instructed primarily standup and some ground. I left after a falling out with the money man, and went back to Johnny Holbrooks karate where I started a mma program in his school, using the 10th planet techniques as the basis for my jiujitsu. after two years with him, he awarded me my blackbelt in gojushorin karate under the Carolina karate systems banner. he died unexpectantly in feb of this year, and after his death, I almost gave up instructing, but in April after mopeing around the house for to months, my girl gave me the greatest birthday gift and paid for me to go to Eddie's seminar in Delaware at Kevin greens. I was instantly back in love with martial arts and have started back teaching again. I opened ninth level mma working out of a sub rented space at a fitness gym in Clayton NC. I train under Neale hoerle from lynchburg now and hope to one day fly the 10th planet banner as an affiliate. My story the end.
