The thing about M.A is that they are so completly diffrent,one who trains Judo only trains Sweeps & Throws,while one who trains Tae Kwon Do Only trains punches and kicks,therfor a Tae Kwon Do Practiser should be allowed all M.A. Strikes,but only one of the Sweeps&Throws. If someone agrees with me, please let me know.

Here is the list:

Karate(General):All four ranks in Strikes,but only two in Sweeps,this is because one who trains Karate only trains Sweeps not throws.

Judo:Four in Sweeps&Throws,and one in Strikes,this is because he must learn how to puch if he want's to learn how to parry that attack.

Kung Fu:Four in Strikes,but only one in Sweeps

Aikido:Four in Sweeps&Throws,and one in Strikes.

Ju Jitsu:Three in Sweeps&Throws,and three in Strikes

After my experiance in Martial Arts I think that this is some what Similliar as in real life.I would like for people to write and tell me what they think.
