- We do not teach any
one particular style or a collection of prescribed techniques. No one particular style has anywhere
near all the answers. We don't claim to either.
- We teach a state of open mind, techniques concepts,
dynamics and tactics which allow you to look for your own answers.
- Our job
is to teach our students to switch on and trust their own
critical faculties. We will not teach, mimic techniques or styles for
affect.
- Students learn to understanding how
to judge what works and why. This allows them to utilise, adapt
and apply any technique suited to them, from the
vast repertoire available from a diverse martial arts world and from their own
creativity.
- We will not spout mysticism at you or try
and convince you to train in techniques or methods which you do
not understand or know do not work. We will give you the
mental and physical tools you need to become an effective
martial artist and to fully understand why.
- Students need to be aware of what's needed for defence or offense
instinctively. Not slow down the process of response by prescribing
movement for possible use. A prescribed action alone is
not enough.
- We must learn to be aware of probable
actions taking place quicker than you could think the action out.
Students must fully understand exactly what the purpose of the
action is for , when and why.
- We work on a
system by which we can initiate a stimulant for an efficient movement. A needed
response i.e. catch, throw, evade, resist, parry, strike. Of which
the body already has inherent patterns for those purposes. You can't
slow down or alter this system to get a better "karate effect".
- We have built into our mindset a trial and error self correcting attitude.
- Karate can not redefine movement for its own purpose or
style.
