The stick arts complement Karate-Do. They are self defence weapons using blunt force trauma and impact.
Although it is possible to kill or maim with impact weapons, just as it is with empty hands (Kara Te), it is possible to choose not to.
There is no benign way to fight with a blade. If you use a blade you will kill or maim your opponent.
Blades are the "dark side" of STMA - we are developing this aspect seperately.
These include The Ninja and Samurai arts of Japan, the Kali warrior arts of the Philippines and the Krabi weapons of Thailand.
