Most important 2 questions:
1. How is it that you do not know the name of your system if you have these written records?
2. Could these written records have been a forgery of some kind?
1. 1. as i said before no name of martial arts have been mentioned
2. yes it is possible for "some" of the records to be forge, but some of them i have witnessed being written by my master and also Metso Paulo,
2. there is no tournament for people in my martial arts, the tournament is a martial arts gathering in general in which masters of all kinds of martial arts (tkd kenpo etc) attend.
3. as for country of origin there are "recordS" from all over the two main ones are India and the scandinavian region, then eventually moved to america.
4. Again this is nothing out of "video games" we dont attempt to shoot crap out of our hands (only our asses
it is more of a focus thing.
and the moves are made to be generic to prove that the art is not a "generic art" it shows that it is a conglomeration and does not use (front right snap kick from "tae kwon do" instead of a prism kick from "kenji do")
5. "this is getting really gay, since i have signed up i have spent the whoe time defending against invalides ignorant interpretations of my art, i ask a question (a simple question) and instead of people answering they post berations on my thread"
I don't have a lot of time, so lets do this by the #'s. The #'s below correspond to the #'s above.
1. The records issue is still very confusing to me. You said that you witnessed your teacher writing these records himself, but that is sort of circular in terms of credability. What "records" show that your teacher is credable. Basically, how do we know that your not making this stuff up, or that your teacher wasn't making stuff up and feeding it to you? I hate to be frank, but I have to at this point. I guess what we need is the "story" behind your art to help give these records credability. Every art has a story. Maybe the story behind yours could help us figure out what your art might be called.
2. O.K.....so how about some details regarding this "gathering." "The Dog Brothers" is a full contact stick fighting group that has annual gatherings. Their information is on the net, as well as in magazines, etc. The WMAA (filipino martial art organization) has annual gatherings as well. Our info is also on the internet. Where is the information regarding your gathering? How could we learn about this gathering? How many people attend this gathering? How often is this held (once a year, once a month, etc.)? Is this public info, or is this some "underground" thing?
3. I understand. At least we know that your system, as far as its last place of origin, was India or Scandinavia. Is this system attached to any type of religious belief (as "Yoga" is attached to Hinduism, for instance)? Would the general public in these countries know about your art, or is your art some sort of "underground" or "secret" type thing?
4. Where do these "moves" come from? Are they a conglomerate from a multitude of other systems, or do they have an actual origin within your system? What does your system consist of in terms of technique; does it only consist of the "inner power" thing, but with added techniques "personalized" by the practitioner, or is there a standard of techniques accross the board. Also, what kind of techniques are these (grappling, punching, kicking, etc.) Any weapon work involved in your system?
5. Sorry, no one is trying to be "gay" here. It is just that although question was simple, nobody really knows what the hell you are talking about. No offense, but no one has heard of your art, or anything like it. People are jumping to conclusions and thinking that your art is Bull-do-do; and rightfully so considering that the claims seem outlandish with no source other then you to back up the claims. I am not trying to "assume" anything, and instead just trying to get all the pertinent info regarding your system, of which no one has ever heard of before. Please understand that I am trying very hard to get to the bottom of this without "slamming" you. So, you should be thanking me and others who are asking you a lot of questions and trying to honestly discover and learn about what your claiming, and talking about. If it wasn't for us, you would be having your *** handed to you on the internet. Trust me when I say that there is a substantial list of MT members who are at the edge of their keyboards, waiting to drop the hammer on you right now, and rip you to shreds. The only thing preventing them from doing so is they are waiting to hear what you have to say based off of mine and TLH3rdan's questions. Trust me, your answers are very important to your own livelyhood here. And also trust that the minute we stop asking questions, you are going to have your *** handed to you because people aren't believing what your saying.
Your explainations might change your fate.
So, I am not trying to berade, just trying to help and learn. You might not want to bite a helping hand at this point.
No disrespect intended here, and I hope to read some of your responses soon.
