I am 15 years old, And i want to use my time on learning some additional things, I am planning to learn karate but my family members forces for dance. Karate or dance? What should i have to go with? Jay
It depends on what you're most interested in doing. It seems to me that you would choose karate. You need to do what is right for you, not for your family.
I dance but martial arts are way cool. We had a conversation last night about Bruce lee and Cha Cha since we were dancing cha cha. Lee was a champion cha cha dancer. For me I like women so I dance as it gets me a lot of them. Karate would be similar if you like grappling with men.
I took some lessons of karate and it's alot more fun to see people doing lessons than actually do it yourself. I guess it depends on the dance, if it's slow hmm i don't know but if it's like techno party awesome then yes.
Nothing but couples dancing for me; Merengue, Salsa, NC 2 step, 2 step, Swing and ahh the waltz.....gotta love waltzing. Nothing slow about east coast swing or salsa or any dance depending on the song. Dancing is more about having fun than karate though...
As others have said, what you like the most. It's common sense. Both are demanding and you'll get some good things out of both of them.
It depends on your physique. Karate is good if you prefer an activity that involves short, fast movements and brief bursts of energy. With dance I suppose it depends what kind of style you use, but I imagine it's a little more relaxed and sustained. Karate will give you very strong thighs. I think it comes down to this question: are you a lover or a fighter?
Go for Dance Jay. Chicks like guys who dance , You dont get to show off your fighting styles to chicks anyways, but in clubs atleast girls like you if u can dance well.
I agree with dance because we usually study self defense assuming we are at some point going to need to defend ourselves physically. It almost never happens. There are chances to dance daily at clubs, weddings, parties, dance studios and yes women love it and they love lovers more than they love fighters.
