> Unlike striking-based martial arts, there is really no violence at all I tend to disagree with this. I did 10 years of judo, and 10 years of striking sport (in particular muay thai), and I think injuries are more common in judo. Conversely, striking sports aren't necessarily violent. Sparring can be done in a non-violent manner. And it's highly technical as well.
