GRandmaster who cannot even articulate the correct description on the exactness of the techniques .A Grandmaster in name , does one desrves to be a grandmaster who cannot perform and cannot present logic to every presentation. What kind of image this grandmaster representing FMA being criticize for bad performance, incoherent , inconsistent, out of tune footwork and worst how much can he teach after several sessions, except repeating and repeating , playing the same record in the same phonograph. Where is the learning skill , where is the teaching skill.Those who stick to this kind of teaching is as bad as the Grandmaster's pretentious mentality.

It is about time that those who are learning the FMA should open your mind to know and understand , you have the freedom to learn and you have the freedom to understand why stick to the teachngs that are blocking your mentality to analyze.

Stereo type mentality will drive you to wrong education and wrong end results.I still see the blade blocking style and the disarming with a live knife.Do you still admire this type of teachings. How do you evaluate yourself to have somebody disarm your blade or knife in actual fight. What you do in training will come out in actual fight.

Comes this entry of 2008, a year to understand. I hope each one that research FMA must open their avenues of understanding. It pains me to see that someone claim to be an FMA yet catching the open live blade and disarming the blade. Good luck if you continue to do it.
