Senior Master
Andrew recently started a thread about realizing the weaknesses of our arts.
How many instructors here are going outside of tradition/canon to help fill the holes our arts all have?
For example, kenpo tends to be short on ground work. A lot of kenpo schools are adding a bjj or mma curriculum to round out their schools.
I find kenpo doesn't focus enough on awareness and avoidance. When I teach class, I'll typically spend a few minutes drilling on escape, awareness and good sense.
