 In 2025 we have not "added anything new" in terms of techniques or drills from any system, Art or school - at least not yet


What we are doing, at least in the first Season is cycles of what we already have in the STMA "Syllabus" which allows us to go into more depth and detail

You can find something new in Five Swords even if you have practiced in hundreds of times with dozens of partners for ten years


What we have been doing this year is covering

KENPO Concepts

JuJutsu Principles

JKD Attributes



A punch is just a punch

Karate punch, boxing punch, WC, KF, etc

when your knuckles hit his jaw bone on bone it doesn't matter what "type" of punch from what "art"


Reality Strikes


the training in whatever Art of method develops the Attributes of the punch


Speed, power, accuracy

we develop Concepts - Marriage Of Gravity, Directional Harmony, Coordination

Distance and Timing


And so it goes on as we apply Concepts, Principles and Attributes to each Phase Kicking, Punching, Trapping, Grappling - and each Weapon in each range and stage
