gaara needs to practice his taijutsu , so he can fight while controlling the sand how he wants, it would make him a way better ninja, and gaara is not fragile anymore, he took on mizukage's explosion head on. just imagine gaara attacking the enemy with quick taijutsu moves, and then he builds sand around the enemy then jumping back while the sand engulfs the exhausted enemy.
Couldnt have said it better myself. lol. Also as lswhyte123 said he could use his sand armor like A use's his lightning. I believe Gaara would be an OUTSTANDING ninja, if he increased his skills in taijutsu. Easily one of the best.

Why does he need taijutsu, if anything he needs another element
Not arguing.

But Taijutsu is his weak area. Gaara close range isn't strong at all and took a beating from Lee which could have been avoided if he'd had some hand to hand skills. Also when Kimmimaru fought him and broke through his sand wall, I thought a good kick to the face woulda done wonders.
The fact is Gaara should have been able to fight toe to toe with anyone, as Shukaku had a spear as a weapon, and really he should have trained to fight with it. You can't argue that Gaara would be a far better and more rounded fighter with high quality Taijutsu?

To answer, the only real addition he needs is the Magnet release in order to control Iron or Metals.
He already uses Sand and has Wind Nature.

There was another reason I thought Gaara might learn Taijutsu.

He and Lee have a history. They fought, then fought together. They are basically ying & yang in styles.

I'm not saying it's likely but a part of me wants to see Gaara use the 8-gates mode.
