Hi
I have recently been blessed with some more free time which will enable me to train in another art. I already study Tang Soo Do. I have had many conversations over the effectiveness of TMA's and a lot of things have been exposed. I really am quite set on learning a CMA no matter if its not as effective as BJJ or MMA, as i like the tradition and history and the training methods, and i wont just be going to learn how to fight.
So i wanted to know peoples unbiased opinions (hence posting the thread here) on what CMA's are worthwhile learning? I basically dont want to start a school and be told "ultimate" techniques and that our style shits on all other styles. I want a down to earth approach to training. which doesnt lie (or is dillusional) about the effectiveness of techniques, like i would be fine if they said "using 'X' is really just for show, dont use it in real life" and would be interested in learning it for tradition purposes, i just dont want "do this and the guys neck will instantly break"
Sorry im rubbish at keeping these things short. Anywho fire away
