    Do you want to compete? Would you prefer an increased risk of concussion or skin disease? What gyms do you have near your house?

      Wait skin disease? Like staph from other people you train with and the mats?

        Staph, ring worm, all that jazz. Grappling arts can be really gross so you have to be diligent with the personal hygiene

      When I learned TaeKwonDo they told us not to go for the head as it's a hard target (as in the skull is pretty hard) and you can hurt someone pretty bad by hitting areas like the groin or stomach anyway
