Why did you start martial arts?

[EliVoorhees-jbfe]

Trains ur spirit and teaches u how to defend yourself and the ppl u love

[royalcheetah]

I began Training karate when i was in 3rd grade because all of my classmates who were much bigger and stronger bullied me and attcked me every day, so i began training karate and now as an 11th grader im a part of my country's national karate team and i got so strong and karate was just the best thing that happened to me, and i stopped seeking revenge only when i began taking karate to my heart

Having fun, staying fit, self-defense, and defending those who you care about, along with also building your body bit by bit so you can fully build it in the gym or at home later on.

[DevonAshby-mu]

My reason: so I can train others in mixed martial arts, cause so many people my age dont really know self defense, and just really lack skill variety, so I figured if I could train myself in something, I can train others in that style too

[TurgoLBX]

I started at 3 because I thought it was cool. Now I do it because it’s just a part of my life, AND I like learning flashy kicks.

[MyNameIsELEK]

To learn respect, courtesy, integrity, perseverance, and self-control

[NasionalisAgamis]

To defend my self and my family, and become strong like my uncle and my dad

[Aviation]

For self defense because I got bully in 3th grade I learn taekwondo for 4 year now and am black belt 😊

[AniWho]

I love how the first one had nothing to do with mentioning physical skills. The first thing he lists is to improve confidence, I like that. Developing good characteristics is so important.

[nwarjri]

Because both my parents are black belters so I want to be like them

[BaseArchieEspio]

Heres a lesson for anyone,
Martial arts isnt to fight, its to protect and for defense, it will humble your mind, make you calmer in much situations, which is why I'm learnin!

[Fenghuang]

I am kinda teaching myself( my grandpa did tangsoodo for many years but doesn’t teach me too much) and my kicks are really good and my footwork, I do need to work on defending punches better though

I need a all of those One day... One day.

[ExpiredSweetSpicyChiliDoritoVR]

My parents forced me to, and I’m doing great as a green belt with excellent kicks

[studios]

I started because I grew up with cerebral palsy and I loved watching martial arts movies, anime etc and was told “ you can’t do that you have a disability “ I’m now 29 and still training
turns out I have a natural talent for martial arts, but alot of it had to be learned a lot differently because of my cerebral palsy.

[noname-rdt]

I took up boxing to toughen myself up.

[Olhya_ehtnamuh]

1. "improves" confidence. Look at what its done to my social skills bro🥀💔

[richardnguyen]

None of the above, my aunt wanted me to learn self defense. I was bullied by most people and the only one who didnt was my younger brother and adults. Everyone else I couldnt entirely trust, I evolved to be a fiercw warrior but learned to intensely hate first then I learned to more intensely love others. Someone should have been as bullied like I was but it happened and I live to tell the tale. Dont be a bully to anyone, be a better person than that and show kindness and respect to everyone.

[Hanmashuji]

Not as Nobel as all of you but me personally I do it for the thrill of the fight with someone who stronger than me it cause you feel free while going all out knowing you don’t have to hold back
