When I was a fresh twenty-something, young, agile and fast, I practiced Pencak silat an Indonesian martial art, participated in competitions and demonstrations. At one of those demonstration galas there was also a krabi krabong/ muy thai and escrima demonstration both of which were very impressive and left a lasting impression.
Who knows, maybe I'll pick it up again now that I'm in my early sixties.
