Baguazhang is badass. The old master who I studied taichi under favored it. I always enjoy sparring with any wudang practioner. I love the way the contest will become flowing and constant. What do you mean by European sword? Like traditional fencing?
Capoeria!? Now that is a bit rare. Have a master? Or just personal study(which I don't knock on one bit). How well does it mix with your taekwondo practice?

I personally think that intense sparring and rough training is the only way you really get better. Mutual respect is key in martial arts and alot of that is lost when it's a fight (card or no). For me, there's an asthetic beauty in martial arts-thus the art part
I don't have a pro record either but I've always kept my own records. It's good to know where you stand, per experience I mean.
