Maybe you should try and get back into it again as it is great for fitness.

I've done Shotokan Style Karate and then later on I did T'ai Chi. The first is a hard form, lots of strength, power, stamina, etc. required. The second is a soft form, actually builds your health as you get older, the soft forms start to make more sense, but trust me, there is nothing easy about it, just easier on the body. Take care

If you like Martial Arts and you like Yoga, you'll love T 'ai Chi. Thanks and take care.

I've always wanted to try Tai Chi but never got round to it. I do yoga which I find very calming and it increases flexibility. One day I'll get to try Tai Chi maybe when I'm too old for Krav.

I did martial arts as a teenager for a while but it was called "women's self defence" - it was based on Judo as far as I recall but it was the only form of martial arts I've ever done really :)

Was it effective as a self defence though, that's the main question? I really like doing martial arts because it makes me feel safe as I'm only 5 foot 4. I wish I'd done it when I was a teenager, I might have been teaching now.

Do you find they are quite similar or are they all quite different? I have only done one Krav Maga so I don't know.

I haven't read "Tao Te Ching " by Lao Tzu but it sounds interesting. Would I be able to get it in the UK?

have you ever read chinese "Tao Te Ching " by Lao Tzu?
these kinds of matial arts ,are both quite similar and ,all different.
you try to learn them as total different arts to learn more skills ,and you are forming your own style if you finally find the commens among them.
i am a english learner now ,if you guys find some mistakes or misuse or words ,please told me .
also welcome to discuss martial arts ,especially chinese kungfu ,you are welcome to sent mails to fxssx@126.com.

I've never heard of that one or the fact that Bruce Lee did it.
I do Krav Maga, which is an Israeli martial art.

Was it difficult to get back into it after 5 years? I find that it is expensive to keep training but will continue as long as possible.
