Anyone know what kinds of Martial Arts I can find in VT?
At a younger age I took martial arts lessons for several years. I quit a long time ago but lately have thought about taking up a different style. Im not sure what might be available to me locally in Vermont. Im pretty much willing to go anywhere in the state but I'm not sure what is offered. I know there are at least Aikido, Kung Fu, and Taekwondo schools nearby. Anyone know of any other martial arts schools in Vermont? Or what style might be best for someone just starting?
I don't really know that much about martial arts but hope to learn. Im just afraid of ending up in a McDojo >.< Im looking for a striking martial art, not so much into the grappling. Preferably something focusing on the upper body or balanced between punches and kicks. I don't think something like Taekwondo would be for me :]
All I can really suggest (as I am in Tokyo, Japan) is that you do your homework. Visit a number of places, try out several classes at different places. See what you enjoy. See what places and what people you click with. It is different for every person.
But even after you find a place that rings a bell for you... keep your eyes and ears open. There is no guarantee that it is a good place in the grand scheme of things.
Good luck!
