Agreed!
This system is about empowering yourself in real life situations.
It differs because of the way the information is being taught an processed as well as the way the mental side is being brought up to speed and movement are incorparated.
I cover all ranges of combat, Kicking, punching, trapping, grappling, weapons, guns. etc ..
Best I can say come try, see exp for yourself. Yes this I a discussion forum but it is not a place for me to share,give away my information that I have for years been working on to a bunch of guys who I don't know from Adam.
An if this is something you all think is Generic or ******** WALK ON..
I train in Kenpo, as well as Arnis and BJJ. If someone asked me what any of those arts were like, I'd tell them, if they were interested and perhaps wanted to train in them. I've gone so far at times, as to actually give a little 'demo' for lack of better words, so the person could actually see some of the art. And yes, of course, if they were really interested in training, I'd invite them to a class.
If I simply said something that gave little info. its probably a no brainer that the person would ask me more questions. If I replied with the same response, people would most likely begin to reply much like what we have already seen in this thread.
I don't think that asking how your system differs from another JKD school, a Kajukenbo school, etc. is asking to much. If someone told me that they had a better method of doing something, of course I'm going to be curious and ask...I think others would do the same. If I was looking to paint the walls of my house, and I brought 2 different kinds of paint to the counter, I'd hope the guy wouldn't keep a secret and not tell me what paint would be best.
As for saying something is crap, well, looking at my few posts I've made, I have said nothing like that. I've asked legit, sincere questions.
So, in closing, likewise, if you don't want to explain your art to people you don't know from Adam, do you expect someone to travel to see you, if they don't know you from Adam, and if you're not willing to go into any detail about what you teach and how it differs from another art? If I walk into a school for the first time, because I see something I like, you can bet I'm going to ask the teacher a bunch of questions. I would hope in return I'd get sincere answers.
