Flexibility

We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails.

- Dolly Parton

One thing I do like about self defence / application training versus traditional is the ability to adjust and adapt the techniques. It is folly to get beat up using ineffective techniques - because that is what has always been taught. Just as in life we walk a balancing act between respect and an understanding of the past and a willingness to analyze how we can improve what has been passed down.

Traditional training is like an ancient tome that we read and commit to memory. It is never changed and handed down, being careful to preserve it as it was long ago. Self defence is us taking what we've read and memorized and applying that in the real world.

I personally watch for improvements to our self defense techniques, and if they are good enough, update our curriculum. However I will continue to teach the original as well, explaining why we've replaced it - how the new variant is an improvement.

We are back! Training in person.
