Secrets of trapping, joint locking and limb destruction.

The body is trained to deliver high velocity striking and rapid movement. In a combat situation, the opponent’s space is quickly penetrated with a neutralising and devastating series of strikes.

The movements are fluid and continuous based on skilled graceful footwork. Constant pressure is applied when striking, trapping or grabbing, leaving little time and distance for the opponent to counter attack.

The open-handed techniques are based on the many weapon skills that practitioners acquire. When fighting without a weapon, all parts of the body are used to strike. This knowledge was designed to cause severe damage, unconsciousness or death to the opponent.

A major key to understanding is the practice of many, intricate, interwoven movements. Nerve-point hitting, takedowns, foot sweeps, throws, elbow and knee strikes are all taught within a deep understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the human body.

The training methods and teaching progressions of the system give you the ability to apply movements in many different situations and variations. The advanced level of training inspires practitioners to develop mental and spiritual skills as well as the physical.
