How did we get from Sanda competitions to "the best method of self defense"?
I do believe that Maxximus original post was about the continuing competition between the Sanda teams and various other teams around the world.
Bau
-- I disagree. the Chinese would NEVER bring in poor fighters to make their teams look better! Never!
Tracey
-- TraceyKarate is correct Sir! Competition and self defense are not the same. But since we can't go around defending ourselves at will, we have developed competition to give people an arena to try different things out.
I agree with you in keeping things simple and not having to practice for self defense, but what THE HELL does that have to do with Sanda competition????
Peace!
