To me...I tend to agree with your line of thinking.<br /><br />To me, a martial art doesn't teach fighting as such. It is a training method to bring fitness, coordination, train the body to project power and so on. Also the mental characteristics that parallel these.<br /><br />In a fight, you've tipped some of the odds in your favor. How you fare depends on countless variables.<br /><br />In my thinking, if we pursue a traditional art, we have to let that training shape us.Rick Matzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09699550034693340637noreply@blogger.com
