Oh how wonderful, what kind of capoeira? West African or Caribbean
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Caribbean mostly Brazilan but the beautiful thing about it is there is many different teachings so it is endless

Ah I see, the reason I ask is because I also take martial arts. Okinawa Jiu Jitsu to be specific.

ah where is that from?
*i took pi-Gua before i started doing capoeira so its nice to have a change of style from time to time*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's Japanese just not to the traditional style and it's more or less a regional style.
pi-gua? never seen it in action before, but of course with all MMA fad coming out its becoming harder and harder to find someone to talk to just about straight up martial arts without involving a cage in the matter.

ah ok sounds interesting is it based on strikes or grapples?
and yea its becoming all to rare to find a pure martial artist but only in this country i like to travel and you would be surprised how many people do a type of martial art or fighting sport
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Still a grapple based style with joint locks, and with some mixture of striking.
True that, true that.

nice sounds interesting how long have you been practicing
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
5-6 years give or take. What about you?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i took pi-gua for about 10 years and capoeira only 1 year so im still new but learning at a fast pace lol

That's nice to hear. So how does pi-gua work?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
its a long fist type and its based on strikes and arm whipping movements

Very interesting, so it probably doesn't emphasis much on the in fighting portion of combat I suppose?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
its mostly for defense and taking down opponents quickly

defense I see I can understand that aspect then.

OK, I had to turn my laptop upside down to critique the picture.
So from what I saw, the eyes are a bit high on the face and the the upper arm that's bent is a little too long.
I will say that you were somewhat faithful to Elena's design. It's just those anatomical issues that needed to be addressed.

I thank you for your opinion on my picture but, as far as "anatomical issues" are concerned I see no reason to correct them the arms are longer because of her height (6'0) as far as the eyes you are entitled to your own views.
,again thank you for your critique
