Good Morning Scott;
 Well, what ever make You Feel Better But, If You are "Actually" In the training of Kyusho, You Do Not Need Too Harden Anything

If Someone broke into My Home - I do not need to have my "Hands", or my "Feet" Hardened in order to protect my self, or my Family
 








 

I know, or I Surly Hope that your just Joking But, if you are at all serious about  having Hard Hands, and Hard feet , and calling them your "Secret Weapon" then, all I can say is maybe when you get older, and are able to think out of the box, you will see how silly that is

You had Me Worried There for a minute

You guy are so funny, I really get a kick out of the thing you say. How do I do this or that? I do it this way! one that way stinks! my way is best! Well I think your way stinks! and so on. when the true is truely unknow to you.

 I guess, Martial art will never change, every one is saying," my way is the best way. The only people your fooling is yourselves and the students under you. martial art is not a religion, for if there is one God there is one way to please him. but martial arts is situational and mathamatical. and there are many many ways. Not just one.You all sound like you know every thing, like you can not be defeated! but thats not true, there are very few with that title, and the few with this title got it by great skill and a lot of luck.
Insteat, try to look at your art as a foundational stepping stone, then use this site and all the other site to build apon your knowledge. don't be so critical!!!!

Master Mas, title (undefeated,) practiced Goju Ryu, mastered it, and when on finding what works for him, teaching all his high students to do the same. Do this and you may have the title under your name.

To go to the north pole, there is a miillion way to get there. Your direction depends on were you are starting from and how many mountains and valleys are in the way....
So is the way in combat.

 Thank you under dog, I though by sharing, by way of posting that some martial artists out there would find new or possible new, maybe easier way to do things that would HELP them to find the faster or a better way way to train. In stead what we seem to have here, for the most part is dogmatic veiw points, matial personallitys that pormotes there personal dinomination as if it was there religion!  I personal as far as religion goes, am anti- dinominational, ssince there is one God there must be one way. But we see so many dinominations??? which make religion so complicated. I view martial art is a similar way. so many dinominations, and so many cult followers, and they speak with authority! they post with authority.

 I have some question for them, answer if you Know.

#1, when you tell use about your master, have you asked the question of your master, are you undefeated in all of your combat situations?

 If the answer is yes, known to be undefeated, you truely have the right to speak with authority.

 If you don't know if your master is truely undefeated, you better ask him, for if his answer is," well most of the times, or I have mostly saved my self, or Some times, you may or may not have a wise master or instructor.

 If his answer is I have never had a combat situation in my life, but he teaches you combat techniques and methods, you are in a cult! In that case, you are untested, and you should be looking for a real master or instructor. But you most of all, should never speak with authority.

  For there are many cults in martial arts, that are very showy, and look good in the Dojo, but will never ever work in combat, and only give a fulse scents of security to the instructor and the student. and I am AGAINST this practice.

 So, if you have been in combat, and the battle has work out in your favor ( most of the time ) you should help your fellow man by sharing, if not, you should be listening or asking questions, that would be a mark of a wise human being.

  I look forward to hearing form all of you, but I hate to hear people bluster about there Great Masters with NO title.
