To state the obvious, it’s not a worker doing that. It’s Universal Studios.

I do so I also know Big Bang Zhang, but he is less famous

Zhang Weili is mad famous

Good luck with it. I read your PDF. Let me know if you want any advice.

I’m not sure having no coaches is a good idea. A martial arts coach is a perfect example of “justified hierarchy”. And you do mark skill disparities as one of the major issues you’re facing.

You’re welcome

and you can only wrestle one person at a time, and a lot of street-violence is groups

I don’t recommend collapsible batons: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=uDBv-Vo7B5M

While being thrown in jail for manslaughter is arguably better than being killed

better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6 🙂

This is a wrong view and you should self-crit.

leaves you exposed to liver shots

Hey, mod of !combat@lemmy.ml here. Happy to answer questions.

When choosing a martial art, you’re not choosing in an ideal world, you’re choosing in your city. You need to find a good gym you can travel to, with good coaches and a schedule that works for you.

I’m going to move to a bigger city in September, and there’s a lot of stuff available, so you can comment on the more niche options.

Step one: spend an hour searching what’s available there. Check their timetables to make sure you can fit it in, and then get back to us. Then you need to go to the gym and make sure you like the vibes there. A good student-teacher relationship is essential.

Decent answers here already. Like 389aaa saying"My number one piece of advice is that the best martial art is the one you will practice consistently" – and that largely has to do with liking the crew.

try to find a bjj gym that incorporates judo

Judo in recent years has focused more on ground submission grappling (ne-waza), so with judo you’ll do some submission grappling. Though still, BJJ guys are far better at ne-waza than judoka.
