hey, I'm new and all i know is that this martial arts dwells deeply in weapons training. I was impressed by many videos, and learned that there are many, many styles. All i want to know are some pros and cons of this Martial art. I've heard that its best defence is its offence, is this true? Are the movements and defence complicated? Does it lack in grappling? I've heard its great with disarming foes, but does horrible in group fights. So whats true, whats false, what are the advantages, and what are the disadvantages? Please, I understand all martial arts have their own pros and cons, but can you guys compare to other arts so i can have an idea of this beautiful art?
