This is just a way so guys can practice gymnastic without the "girly" cliché attached to it :o

XMA was created to allow people to practice the type of martial arts shown in movies.

It's for show.

See the founder say it here watch?v=38aK2KwgWUk

If you're judging it based on actual combat efficiency, it does suck, you're right.

But for visual prowess, it's interesting to watch.

Do you hav any idea how much money I would be willing to pay to see these guys try to actually fight some taking Muay Thai or BJJ or u an MMA guy and just watch them get BEAT DOWN

Nothing can prepare you for a real fight, everyone has their own way of moving, attacking and defending. The most training does for you is increase your speed, stamina and train the mind to be ready for what ever is thrown at you. It is up to the person on how linier they wish to think. Crap if your basic 'blocks' taught in most martial arts schools saved you from everything thrown at you, sign me up!

I am on XMA at my karate studio. And this is nothing we do. we focus on gymnastics and karate of coarse.

@xXxStunt4LifexXx So we are talking about intimidation verses actually fighting?

[anikinippon]

@IIVCloudxRisingVII No, xXxStunt4LifexXx said it's to "learn cool tricks" and who said I would get in a stance?

[IIVCloudxRisingVII]

@anikinippon I never said we use it on the streets. I literally said it's for entertainment, you are not very smart young man. Martial arts on the other hand has so many choreographed,"grab his arm after he punches then grab his head and knee him in the face." Do you honestly believe that would work in real life? Not in todays world. You would get shot while your trying to take your gay ass fighting stance.

[anikinippon]

@xXxStunt4LifexXx And your choreographed dance moves will save you in the streets? Have fun with that buddy, try that one on Mike Tyson.

[anikinippon]

@xXxStunt4LifexXx Martial arts can't teach you to react in a real fight? Good luck telling the Gracies that.

[anikinippon]

@xXxStunt4LifexXx Yea because you can just callous your knuckles and get your joints ready by spinning in circles. There is a reason it's BULLshido in the title and not Bushido. Real training comes from contact and actually using technique on someone, not simply looking "cool" and theorizing what might work at the moment of life and death.

[anikinippon]

@xXxStunt4LifexXx Not necessarily, acrobatics and martial arts and not synonymous.
