Looking for martial artists around mine and my friends age for a short film. Looking for 15-17 year old martial artists around South Wales for various roles in a short film about underground fighting and the abuse of martial arts.
Firstly I can't help with that but what do you mean the abuse of martial arts
Well how do you know there's so many that do that? Because underground fights have nothing to do with martial artists especially these days with so many legitimate ways to compete. Most underground fights are between ufc wannabes who don't have the actual skill to compete in proper venuesHow so many martial artists abuse the fact they can hurt someone if they want and use their martial arts for that purpose.

I know a lot of MMA people in South Wales but not sure if they would be willing to be in a film by someone they don't know. PM me details and I will contact them to see if any are interested.
Obviously there'll always be a couple who do that but it's a very small fraction and personally I'm not a fan of those type of films that make all martial artists are thugs when that's absolutely not the case and honestly I doubt many martial artists would want to be involved in it either, just my 2 centsI just know a couple boys who abuse the fact they do Muay Thai and Kick boxing and like to start fights and also growing there was that one bully who figured out karate before everyone else. The abuse of martial arts factor is just to create a common enemy in the film.

From how I've read it he means he wants to show martial artists as thugs go round picking fights and bullying people...I have answered your PM, I can give your details to people in MMA in Wales but I won't give you their details. It will be up to them whether they respond or not because asking for young teenagers on a website can be seen as iffy. You could of course google and ask at various clubs, see what they say. I not sure if you realise that 'underground' fighting doesn't really happen much outside films and television, not much call for it. There's plenty of fight nights, travellers fights and unlicensed boxing ( which is legal) going on that so called underground fighting is unnecessary. The 'abuse ' of martial things is a bit odd, not sure what you are meaning by it.

And the fact that this guys supposedly a 16 year old who's making a movie and doesn't have any friends who do martial arts or knows anyone he can ask or go to any local schools. I mean these days more people than not have trained in some martial art at least once in their life surely it can't be that hard to find anyone in his area that he has to come onto a forum to askYeah, that will go down well. There's a MMA club in south Wales that takes in young teenagers who may be heading into trouble with the law and turns them around. It's won awards and funding because of the good work they do.
Asking for young teenagers seems odd, I won't be giving the OP anyone's contact details, I will give people their's as I said and they can make up their mind but I want a lot more info than they are giving at the moment before I'm convinced it's legit.

Martial arts is made for fighting so if someone is fighting using martial arts then that's what it was made for. If someone is being a jerk and causing fights then that's a personality issue. Martial arts does not = bullying nor does it = abuse. Those are things that people personally decide do regardless of if they know martial arts or not.the abuse of martial arts
