By Erna Gutierrez


Martial arts is said to be and art of waging war, or an art of combat. It consists of movements both for offensive and defensive purposes. There are several types of martial arts namely, Tae Kwon Do, Tai chi, Kung Fu, Karate and so on. It could also be characterized in three categories, depending on its major movement, striking such as Muay thai, Grappling like Juddo, and weaponry such as Kendo. There are countless of movement and types of it which made it quite necessary to form a Martial Arts Association.

Those that practice such tradition fighting movements are called martial artists. There is a wide variety of movements actually but it can be separated into groups such as strikes, weapons training or grappling. With strikes it can include kung fu, muay thai, taekwondo, capoeira, savate and wing chun. Weaponry includes, fencing, jukendo, eskrima, kendo, gatka, kali.

On the other hand, grappling are movements that are very prominent in judo, jujitso, aikido, hapkido, glima and so on. There are still many types of fighting movements that are not listed here. And one of the main purpose of forming the organization is to unify all the artist, regardless of the movements they are very passionate about and preserve the tradition.

It is one way to destress both mind and body usually resulting to rejuvenation. If you feel like you need to be a member of a certain organization while you are learning some moves, then you may certainly do so. These organizations do not mind whether or not you are a beginner or probably own a couple of black belts already.

You will be able to receive regular invitations for training courses, workshops, conferences and championships. Nowadays, it could be pretty hard to attract students to learn some judo or karate. Especially when an xbox 360 or the internet is constantly nagging them to just stay indoors and sit in front of their computers for hours.

Other advantages of being a member includes receiving invitations for conferences, training courses, seminars workshops that will help you improve your skills. Membership benefits could also include discounts for such programs and sometimes in house conferences are actually given for free. Such benefits are in a treat.

When looking for an organization, be wary of those that seems to compete with other organization. Not only is that lame, but it also disqualifies the main purpose of forming an organization and that is to to retain the tradition and promote camaraderie. Look for an organization where members are down to earth individuals.

Searching for an organization need not to be hard. Find out what organizations are near to your area, gather information about such organization and take time to personally visit. Find an organization whose principles match perfectly with yours, if not then you will surely end up not liking the organization in the end.

The several Martial Arts Association are there to remind us that it is here for keeps. It adds formality and improves respect for this old tradition and it continues to inform people the benefits of learning a few movements.
