Firstly i think there are those that have talent in martial arts and i dont have much to add in terms of that to what has been said already. But id like to add in terms of the no-hopers..
It depends when you catch people.
If you train someone from a kid, like in thailand, then they tend to be able to do it. Ive not really come across kids that couldnt do it. All of them can. Its only if people start later in life then they can hit that point where they just cant do it. Its usually because they cant move well in the way a bad dancer will never move well and it will always look strained.
BUt catch them as a kid and i think, though im not sure, but i think you can take people to a good level. Im sure this has something to do with the development of the brain and what people are exposed to as they grow up.
So while i feel some people are talented i dont think its beyond the ability of others if they start early enough. But i acknowledge that later in life there are those for whom it is too late to ever be really good.
