The "lowest impact" martial art, Tai Chi Chuan, you burn roughly 320, about the same as downhill skiing. In most others though, vigorous external ones, especially if they include cals in their curriculum, you will burn up to 800 in an hour. If you train with weaponry, some of which may be heavy, its effect on the muscles, is similar to that of weight asisted aerobics; you will burn up to 1,000 calories, and even resting you will keep on burning blubber because of muscle soreness. In both Kung Fu and Karate, weapons can be hard on the body if you're not used to them. Not because instructors are such sociopaths they spend their time whacking you; weapons are hard on the body because you are doing hundreds of repetitions with something weighing between 2 to 10 lbs. That may not sound like much, until you take into consideration the angle by which you hold something.
By far the harshest Martial Arts weapon, is probably the Tetsubo; it is a 30 lb Japanese club, that was designed to break horse's legs, and break body armor. I am not aware of any dojos however, that train in the use of that monstrousity. Again, to conclude; at the lowest level of impact, roughly around 320 calories per hour. If you are training with weaponry, such as a spear in Kung Fu, most of which are in fact heavier than they look, or, a Suburito in Kenjutsu, which weighs as much as a real Katana, if that is included in the training you will burn up to 1,000. However you do not study weapons, until you have reached black belt level or the equivalent. It is a sad reality of modern martial arts, that not even physically grown adults, have the psychological maturity to be "playing" with weapons. You need to prove to the instructor that you can use a staff without whacking other people in the head, or kamas without cutting yourself because you pretended to be in Lord of the Rings. State law requies most martial arts schools not to allow children under 18 to study edged weapons. In Japan, if through parental negligence, or dojo instructor irresponsibility a kid is caught wielding a Katana, you could go to prison for 20 to 30 years; naturally in East Asia they take martial arts weaponry a lot more seriously.
Japan for example, has an outright ban; you can only legally use them, inside the confines of a dojo, if an police officer catches you with even so much as an unsheathed Bokken (wooden sword) outside the confines of a dojo you can get arrested. I believe you can only use them, within dojos, or while filming movies but I do not think even movie bokkens are the real thing; the "wooden swords" in Japanese movies are in fact made of compressed bamboo. The actual metallic swords, are made with bamboo sheets, laminated to look like metal.
**** Actually there are martial arts that areonly weapons training where you don't have to be a black belt to participate, such as kenjutsu, iaijutsu, kendo, and iaido, as well as numerous others. Aikido for example often uses a bokken or iaito (a dull katana). Also, a suburito is not the actual weight of a katana, it is much heavier and longer and is used for building muscle and control. A bokken is fairly close to the weight and length of an actual, steel katana. I am a practitioner of kenjutsu. As for swords being banned in Japan, where did you get that information? They are banned in the UK, but I have never heard of them being banned in Japan, in fact there are still ceremonies that swords are a big part of. Do some research before answering.

What do martial artists get paid?
Martial artist typically don't get paid just because they are martial artists. The lucky ones get paid because they use their skills as part of their jobs such as bodyguards, and actors. Others teach and earn money that way. The majority of martial artists have full time jobs and the martial arts is a hobby on the side. I teach three classes a week and make very little money, enough to buy a new gi and pay for a seminar once a year. I don't get paid anything. I just do it for the love of my art.
Can you protect your piercings with tape when you're doing martial arts?
If you have a new piercing that has to keep the ring or stud in for a few weeks, I would certainly recommend covering with tape and would allow it in class. I would not allow someone to spar while wearing them, the risk of injury and damage is too great. Removing the stud for an hour long class shouldn't be an issue, but consult your piercer (I always recommend going to a doctor).
What is Uma Thurmans History in the martial arts?
Uma Thurman is not a martial artist; if you watch the "Kill Bill" making of featurettes, reason she looks good is because tarantino insisted, on shooting all action sequences for 2 straight hours. Normally an action sequence is finished in one hour. Thurman however did one better, and said "lets just do this all day." Instead of only 2, she gave Tarantino EIGHT hours, of endlessly doing every action scene until it was finally flawless. Whole reason she looks so skiny; her body fat percentage I think must have dropped all the way down to 7% by the time that was over.
How much money can you get in martial art?
It really varies based upon rank, knowledge, specialty, and whether or not you own a school, an MMA type facility, or give private lessons. Also, whether or not you've been published and become shihan [ professor] along with the above listed, or if you have dojo franchises run by your top black belts using your name to draw students. For example jhoon rhee jung park and jung ho jun owned/operated many dojangs in the Tampa, Florida area that were big schools, and had many students. An average black belt teaching at a community center somewhere could expect maybe $10-15 hourly. A high raking master ~ 6th-10th Dan ~ with a well-known reputation, could do private lessons or seminars for up to $100 an hour. If that Master does movies, endorsements or trains successful MMA fighter or national and world champions, has unlimited earning potential. Find what part of the above that you can do well, and expand as you grow in knowledge, rank, reputation and experience. Quite honestly though, most people do not want to train in hardcore traditional martial arts. They would rather have a TKD class run like aerobics, where everyone just has fun and they most likely won't ever fail a belt test! Don't think of traditional martial arts as money, think of it as knowledge. The more you have, the more potential you have. And running a school is no guarantee of making any money. There is rent, overhead, advertising and insurance that has to be done. Very few people actually try to make a living with martial arts, most have other jobs.
Are nuns allowed to do arts and crafts?
Yes! Since silence is strictly observed during the day for nuns, they usually have an hour to recreate. Usually in the warmer months, this means gardening together. In the winter, they often do arts and crafts! The book called A Right to be Merry, by Mother Mary Francis, describes some of the activities enjoyed in cloistered life.

How many calories burned in an hour of mixed martial arts?
It depends on how drastic you do karate and exercise yourself. If you spend an hour doing some relaxed and not strenuous exercises it doesn't help burn too much calories at all. If you are serious and do some useful movements and training of muscles, it does help you. In fact, doing any kinds of sports other than karate ,can help you burn calories in an hour, such as running, swimming and kung fu. Bear in mind it depends on your program you do.In a 2 hour class you may actually only do an hour of strenuous karate. I read that in karate you burn 10 calories per minute and for Tai Chi you burn 4 calories per minute. So in one class you can burn anywhere between 480 to 1200 calories. It is realistic that you should look between 600 to 840 for two hours. However, the more you weight the more you burn. A 245 pound 19 year old male can burn 861 per hour while a 145 pound male can burn 626
