Hmm, that's to bad.I mean if you're friend isn't drunk like he is now he could really be a sucessfull people, i guess.And being a blckbelt at that age is pretty convincing and talented also.

Well, I was one, lightly intereted in martial arts. But I think I'm a bit old to start practicing now.
I can't even go to the gym regularly (actually,can't go at all) and I really liked going to it, even if I only lasted 2 months. Hopefully, I'll start going mid october.

Really?Why i go to the gym 5 times in a week.It's really fun getting along with my friends and my boyfriend too ^^

Problem # 1? Money
I have planned to trip to Dominican Republic (for the first weekend of October) and I still have to pay a few people who lend me money for the trip
And my salary (which is pathethic) is not helping much either

Problem # 2? Time
I could go very early to the closest gym (5-10 mins on foot) if I had the money. And if I pay for a gym, I'll wnt to go 5 days a week. Not some random day when I don't oversleep

But as I have said, when I return from my trip I'll start working on getting early and stuff. Going to the gym was one of those things that I actually liked (And nobody expected from me )

I get my money from my allowence.I get about 500 dollars per month.Which is pretty big.And the gym near me is just 3 minutes long.And relatively it is cheap 50 dollars per visit but i get a member discount about 15%

50 dollars per visit!?
The one I used to go was 35 (or 30 if I brought my student card) for 30 days.
Unless there's something about your post I didn't understand...

Well, it's an exclusive gym.You can only get in if you qualify like, you have to be an in crowd person.Beacause they give you a free spa treatment afterwards.Which is interesting and relaxing.

Oh yeah? Well.. mines has no air conditioning! How about that?

Well, anyway... I do hope I can start going again. Maybe it's not something fancy to look at (like martial arts) but it does gives me something healthy to do (besides running to catch a bus every once in a while)

Yeah, well that is kinda a pain to do.Well, keep up the good work Guarionex!Oh and one more thing, my gym gives out free cheese and juices of your choice!It's really satisfying.

I had to get eight orange striped in order to become an orange belt, 8 yellow stripes for a yellow, and so on....

Oh wow. That is exactly what happend to me. Strange... very strange.

But yeah, I wish I would have stayed in it though. I gave it up and picked up skateboarding instead. Lol, that would be a self-taught class. I've been doing it for the past 8 years now. I know it isn't martial arts... but it is a practice that requires alot of work to be good at... lots of dedications... and bleeding.

Thank you for the compliment
You could try drunken-style kung fu, though. =P Have you ever seen Jackie Chan's Drunken Master movie? Like that.

Hah, well that only happens in movies.Except if you are very talented with the Kung Fu.Oh and what do you drink to get drunk quickly?

Not to go pointing fingers, but didn't you say you are 13?

*shakes head*

Kids these days...

@skyscrapper - I was suprized to find that Drunken Master was, indeed, a form of martial arts. Remember Bo' Rai Cho from Mortal Kombat? That is about the best taste I've seen of it. Sad it's from a video game, but none the less. Oh and I saw an episode of Naruto (like 145 I think) of him fighting in drunken style.

I'm going to Youtube to see if I can't find some real examples.

::edit::

Found some:

everything else was like movie clips.

Yeah, well kids these days are fun!Well i go to the gym supervised though with my parents or my big bro.And i'm only asking about that baverage so skyscrapper can do that drunken style move easily!

You've never seen "The Legend of Drunken Master" featuring Jackie Chan?!

Oh, Lantis poor you.It's a really good movie you have to watch it to believe it!And by the way i think you can get it on the DVD's.

Yep... I've seen it. Best part is still him trying to drink from his gourd.

But as far as serious non-moive related martial arts... that was the only vid worth while. Unfortunately the repeated most the moves he did multiple times.

I started drinking a few months before turning 14 O.o

Now I'm 15 and can drink like a vacuum cleaner inside water. What do i drink to get drunk quickly? Cachaça, my dear. Brasilian drink. Although vodka and whiskey are very good ones too. *ahem*

I'm gonna watch this video you posted there, I'm dying of curiosity right now... Jackie Chan's the man, I've heard he's a master of Drunken Style in real life as well, but I'm not sure.

Apparently the style really exhists, or else, who would have choreographed his moves in that film?



Edit: Watched the thing. During the first few scenes I thought "hey, that looks like me, drunk, dancing!". Then I realized it was supposed to be like that
Oh my holy god, that guy has got a back from hell.

Have anyone ever practice the dancing martial arts?I've kinda just see it from my friends, friends video clip.You see you perform normal martila arts but with an added dancing moves like spinning, back rolls, and wow...I kinda want to learn it sometimes.
