Martial skill

Judo, ju jitsu, karate and wing chun will reward the dedicated person with some degree of martial skill in a reasonable amount of time. The internal arts are not quite the same; the time commitment is longer and the expectations differ.

It is not enough to evade, grapple, punch and kick. How you do it matters more than the application itself.

In taijiquan, the skills must be applied without using localised strength, aggression or any loss of composure. This is not easy.
