HOW - WHY - WHEN



Most Martial Arts teach you HOW to do a technique, how to punch, how to kick.

So do we - it's the basics.

But most MA have no idea WHY you do that technique or WHEN in the fight you do it.

WHY do you do a cross there?
WHY do a kick that particular way?
WHY use that throw or that lock?
WHY use that counter to that attack?

WHEN do you do it?
You can have the fastest punch or strongest kick in the world, but without a sense or proper timing you'll never land it. Without the proper sense of distance you'll never be in range, always too near or too far.

We don't just teach the HOW at STMA, we teach the WHY and WHEN.
