New actually martial arts isnt that usefull in a street fight
unless you spar free style. It will help you learn that getting hit wont kill you so you can overcome that fear and hit back. If you dont have the Ki and Mysticism you have just another form of calisthenics, not necessarily bad.
thanx,

As I said, it uses biomechanical principles, which are pretty much ki without the trappings and with a scientific explanation.

Most of the sparring I've seen in classes (like my son's karate class) is freestyle. I agree that it's pretty much useless if it's scripted.
