Go to any true martial arts school, and not only will they teach you the moves, they put a huge focus on the mental/spiritual side. They also teach you never to fight unless under drastic circumstances, and also they dont believe that entering martial arts tournaments is right.


Wrong, that's how the martial arts tradition is for chinese and japanese fighting styles, thai is more aggresive, and then there's other martial arts. Isreali, Russian etc... Where the whole fighting stlye is just take your oppenant down no matter how you do it, wether you fight dirty and dishonor your oppenant, it dosn't matter.
