Re: Just Beggining, and getting comfortable with my style
Most gyms advocate the hands up high defense, and they'll call you out if you drop your hands for any reason. I believe having the hands held low is great for a lot of reasons, but if you don't know how to think on your feet or defend you're gonna be s.o.l. It's best to get the fundamentals down first, your stance, how you move and then you can add on to that. You should become deliberate as there should be always be a valid reason behind what you're doing.
As for gym costs it varies. The place that I've been going to for a while was just 5 bucks a month and as it turned out the gas bill was more than the dues. Some places are outrageously expensive. You need to find out what kind of place it is before you decide to put down any money.
If you find out that you don't have the means to go to a gym, you can buy yourself a heavy bag, and a mirror. You can come around here for reference or if you have any questions.
If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.
