There are not many that have earned the title through an established organization. I've been practicing over 25 years and have had the honor of meeting two with the title, both were also tenth dan and over 70 years old.

What do you call a martial arts school?

It depends upon the martial art. It can also differ based on the rank of the instructor. Japanese martial arts refer to the instructor as sensei. Sensei is Japanese for teacher, literally translating before born or one who is born before. Chinese arts use the term 'sifu.' Korean arts use the term 'saboom.'


How effective is self-trained martial arts?

Pretty useless. The fine points of technique and the opportunity to practice them until they become second nature are what make martial arts effective. Also, you may run across a realmartial artist someday, with embarrassing results at best.I agree with what you say but im a self trained martial artist and i have "won" many fights with what i have learned and practiced by myself. i say it depends on how you train yourself.


How would top UFC fighter stand up to top boxer?

If a boxer fought a mixed martial artist in mixed martial arts there is a pretty good chance of them loosing because of kicks, the clinch, knees, elbows, and the ground game. As for a mixed martial artist boxing a boxer, they would be sure to lose. Most mixed martial artists don't have the refined hands of a boxer because they must spend their time training on many other aspects of fighting. Boxers spend their whole time training their hands only.

Who is the best martial artist's in the world?

Who is the "best" martial artist is a matter of opinion. What qualifies someone as being good as a Martial Artist could include several areas of expertise, or a combination of many - - so it depends entirely on what qualities the observer values. Ability to fight well, or demonstrate techniques is one important aspect, but so is a complete and comprehensive knowledge of the art. One might be a champion at tournament fighting, but not very good in street self defense. Many experts agree that a true Martial Artist is one who has a high level of self control, including living by integrity of character with morals and ethics. While many people are going to have their personal favorites, the majority of the most knowledgeable, skilled and honorable masters are the ones most people probably have never heard of or met. Being completely humble, and modest, a true Martial Master would reject the label of being called the "best." Such titles are not only arbitrary, they are fleeting, and can change at any instant.

Who is the best in the world at martial arts?

This is actually a tricky question. First we would have to decide how a martial artist should be rated to be the best in the world. Would it be based on the ability to win a match, difficulty of mastering the art, which provides the most practical application, etc.To honestly answer a question like this you would first have to know who every martial artist in the world is, and what their capacity is to perform their own art, rated by their own system and then compared to others.In short, it would almost be impossible to find "the best in the world". There are many who would immediately answer "Bruce Lee", but this isn't really a valid answer. Now if someone were to ask:"who is the best martial artist in the world, out of a list of the famous martial artists in the world"You would have to consider that even among the famous martial artists, many practice different arts and would have to be ranked in their own martial arts system, and then compared to other martial arts, and even after that some might say they would need to fight each other.Unfortunately there's never an easy answer to a question like this because there's never enough data to draw a solid conclusion. This kind of question is more of an opinion than anything else, so then it may be prudent to reform the question into something like:"Who do you think is the best martial artist in the world, and why?"

Does every martial artist say don't get into a fight?

In my opinion , EVERY martial artist should say "Don't get into a fight" if at all possible of course. Though martial arts is looked upon as more "sporty" today, thanks to movies, MMA, tough man competitions, games, and all that, most people don't realize that martial arts was originally started as a self DEFENSE. Many schools of varying styles teach a basic guideline of "There is no first punch in karate" or kung fu, or whatever it may be. This mind set is that in martial arts, you should not be the attacker or the initiator of the fight, and you should only use it when necessary to defend yourself, or others.
