Has anyone noticed the sheer amount of autists drawn to martial arts?
Maybe it’s just my personal experience bias but I was on the wrestling team for 2 years and did some mma as a kid, and it seems like half the people that do it are genuinely neurodivergent. With wrestling half of them were in the band

Because their parents sign them up for self-defence, you only see them in BS karate and kung-fu, not in real sports like kick-boxing or Wrestling

I think it also has to do with how individual the sports are compared to team sports like soccer or football

Any form of exercise or music is like heroin for autists
