I have been thinking about a lot of stuff lately, mostly brought on by reading this. And I know that there have been multiple posts like this on MT but what the heck here is another one.
Would you train the same MA if, when you were younger (for us old folks), you had just about every MA style imaginable to pick from with good teachers too?
I would still be CMA but I am fairly certain I would have done the CMA training a bit different; Sanda (police/Military), Bajiquan and Xingyiquan.
I am not looking at cross training anything I just find I am very interested in new and old Chinese military/government martial arts. Now this is not that much of a stretch for me I train, have trained or will train 2 of them already but my main style is Taijiquan and I am not 100% sure, if given the option of any MA I wanted, I would have chosen Taijiquan.
Anyone else think they would change or would you have chosen the same art you do now without any changes?
Or would you still do the same art but change things?
