Good day, I want to begin some type of fighting technique, and I figured that I should start with kickboxing because I hear that it is physically demanding. I am in pretty good shape am quite flexable and am naturally good with my legs. Mainly I want to learn something that is useful and eventually I think that I would move to a martial but does anyone agree or disagree that kickboxing is the way to go?
If you have energy withing you and like to kick and punch stuff a lot , KB will be good for you. Being in good shape and flexible is a huge advantage for kick boxing.It's pretty useful too because of the way KBers train. The things you'll learn are very important for any MA (keeping the right distance, retaliating, having a rythm when fighting, get hit without backing off or being afraid) Go for it , do your free class. If you don't like it walk away.
