Crappyrice: Sorry, but to claim that karate is nothing more than a dance is an insult. One of the top karate instructors in the world teaches the bodyguards that protect Japan's highest political figures and the japanese yakuza actually want him dead, and I somehow doubt such a man would be worth noting if karate was nothing more than a dance. We're talking about a man who really can kill in one strike given any opening.

Christ, do you even know what you're talking about? Did some instructor tell you that bullshit? If you accept that, then if you DO face a proper practitioner of the style, prepare to actually be in for a fight. Don't even think I'm claiming that muay-thai is a joke either, I KNOW it's a great martial art, but so is karate. Proper karate isn't flashy kicks, it isn't spinny punches or any of that movie nonsense, it's punches, elbows, knees, limb-catches...it's not as limited as TKD, which I don't consider a particularily good martial art from the standpoint that it offers no practical use of the arms, and isn't defensive.

I also notice in a lot of muay-thai it's very up-right in stance, which is what a lot of TKD is as well, but karate is low and direct. Karate - low and direct, muay-thai - high and direct, TKD - high and loose.

I'd say they're similar styles really, no crappy dancing or pose-like attacks, just simple asskicking. In the end, ignore movies, and the demonstrations, the kata or the kumite. The mind-state of a proper practitioner in a real situation is do or die, much like the samurai of old, where nothing passes through the mind, nothing of loss or winning, just killing or not killing....and thinking of the latter is a failure.
