Traditional Work

Real martial arts training makes you a dangerous human... Not because you have muscles or have learned some special movements...

But because you have drilled movements so frequently that they are now imprinted on your soul - you have reprogrammed your body and your mind and refined yourself to the ultimate point.

To drill a movement 10,000 times: It takes a lot of time, it takes a lot of attention, it is boring, it is tiring, many things will distract you...

As a result, very very few people will manage it.

And, just as a warning, if you reach this level of refinement (the pinnacle of humanity) everything will become extremely unrelatable, the normal human life will confuse you. You will have climbed the mountain (of excellence) by yourself and you will know things that others will never believe.

Roundhouse kick (turning kick) is a staple for all martial artists around the world.

But... How high and how fast is yours?!

High Kicks - Easy

Head Kicks should be something you consider particularly easy to do if you call yourself a martial artist.

I have had people (who consider themselves martial artists) say things like: head Kicks aren't safe because they leave you off balance.

If you are left off balance when you throw a kick to the head then you have a lot of work to do before you can call yourself a martial artist.

Train To Perfection

It takes an unusual person to be able to commit in this manner, most people are absolutely fine being mediocre.
