Harkon72 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Samurai, we have a lot in common. I have a friend as an instructor who I see as my brother. His sempai is like a sister to me. I feel so lucky, I wish you all the best too. Look to the far mountain and see all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusotare Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 As much as anything it’s about mental attitude / conditioning and being able to manage exposure to real life / high pressure situations..How is that not "forging your spirit"?And your standards for what Self defense are are extremely high. I doubt that many police or security level combative programs would meet it.I thought you might like to see this.I'm hoping to get to train with this guy next year when he is over.At 4:00 he says..."It’s the biggest lie that we tell, not just in martial arts we tell it in Cop training we tell it everywhere and it is the lie that you are gonna fight the way you are trained and I hate to be the one to say it, but it is not true!" K. Usque ad mortem bibendum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVx7gXe87QI&feature=youtu.beThis illustrates the point in an awe-inspiring way. Both guys had trained up for this fight. They had a strategy to deal with each, a game plan, variations on techniques to use etc. No one expected what they actually did to each other. PS - Stand and salute these men, awesome is the only word ! If you believe in an ideal. You don't own it ; it owns you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
