i just wanna know, how long does it take to know how to protect yourself? im not talking about getting black belt.. it's like you know the situation you're in and how you react, getting all the moves.
im not learning it, but have always been interested.
but then, i feel like so old for it.
If your want to protect yourself,learn self-defense skill like the one they teach in the police acadamy.martial art like taekwando is more of an in-game sport which pratically useless in a real street fight...I'm a taekwando fighter myself and I find it utterly stupid that you could only fight with your leg..taekwando is flawed in so many ways and I find it is even more useful to brawl than to use taekwando in self defense useless you are extremely talented or have a good sense of reflex and speed but if you have none of the above..good technique is probably what you need
learn akido. guarantee you can flip some dickheads to the ground.
