What are Martial Arts

Kicks, punches, chokes, blocks and lots of fast flying limbs may be what comes to mind when you think of martial arts. However martial arts training is designed to be safe, fun and to not injure your training buddies! Martial arts were historically military and defensive in practice with the majority originating in Asia. These days the majority of martial arts are practiced as sports which can be classified into unarmed, such as BJJ and Taekwondo and armed such as Krav Maga & Jiujitsu. Although martial arts can offer a fierce physical workout, their focus is on the mind as well as the body.

Martial Arts History

Although many martial arts are associated with East Asian culture, other countries have also been known to practice them for centuries, with Europe having its own historical martial arts and Native Americans traditionally use an open-handed style that includes wrestling!
However the majority of martial arts we know and train in today originated in Asia and are thought to be a blend of Chinese and Indian arts.
These are thought to have been practiced from as early as 2600BC
and are often linked to medicinal practices such as acupuncture,
qigong and acupressure.

Types of Martial Arts

There are many different types of martial arts which include technical and often explosive moves including strikes and grappling. Martial arts known for kicking include Taekwondo and capoeira, while boxing and wing chun are known for punching and Judo for throwing. Then of course there are martial arts known for joint locks and control such as BJJ and Jiujitsu. With so much choice of martial arts to practice it is up to you to find one that suits you and to find a safe, supportive facility to train at - like Brisbane Martial Arts.

Some of our new members may have learned a martial art as a child but haven’t been back on the mat since, some may be seasoned martial artists and some may have only just decided to begin their own martial arts journey. All new members are welcomed at Brisbane Martial Arts. No previous experience is required and there is no need to be super fit before starting. Just training in martial arts regularly will work wonders for your level of fitness. Don’t believe us? Come for a trial and see for yourself!
