Posted Questions No Questions Posted Yet Replied Questions If some folks were interested in some of my writings from the past, how do I get them posted on here? You are doing a terrific job, my friend. I can't wait for the actual opening of the Sports Museum. Osu Duane Ethington What is the difference between different Karate tournament circuits in the U.S? Which is the most popular? Does one have to master Kendo or Kenjutsu before venturing to learn Iaido? Is the Iaido sword different from the sword used in Kendo? Do the Ninja use the same sword (Katana) used by the Samurai? I read that the traditional tempered steel Samurai swords were banned in Japan after World War - II. So, Are the Katana's we buy in martial arts shops and on the internet some sort of knock-offs and not true "traditional" Japanese Katana? Where can I find some "traditional" Japanese Katana made by an authentic master sword maker? Most of us have heard of the legendary founder of modern Karate Gichin Funakoshi. But, I'm curious to know who are some of the living masters in Okinawa today? Taekwondo has been a part of the Olympics for a while. Chinese Wushu is a new addition in the Beijing Olympics next year. Do you know if any other Martial Arts are in the Olympic Pipeline to be added soon? I also wonder what are the criteria or other factors that determine if a martial art can be in the Olympics? Hey! Professor what do you think of the Kumite championships in the Van Damme movie Bloodsport? Some people say that is a real competition. Some say that there is no evidence that it exists. Do you have any information on that? What kind of training regimen did Bruce Lee use to develop his Physique? I mean the man looked thin and ordinary. But when his shirt comes off you see the well defined muscles. Most martial artists who train weights today tend to develop bulkier muscles which slow them down. This man was muscular, yet fast and not "bulky" like a bodybuilder. What do you think of Tony Jha? Do you think he is the next big Martial Arts movie super star? I am just wondering what kind of conditioning exercises should I do to get ready for a fight or tournament?           Disclaimer  |  Terms of Service  |  Privacy Notice  |  Contact Us  |  Copyright © 2010 www.martialcafe.com.
