…..Okay what does that mean.  Well it means that you should not be complacent in what you do in the martial sciences but instead look at what other people do and experience their style of practice/training.  I constantly try to bring in world class instructors into my Training Hall.  These experiences simply enhance my own training and those of my students.  In the world today we can travel and be anyplace very quickly.  This gives us the opportunity to train with almost anyone.  Take advantage of that and grow.  There is a unique experience when you try something different than what you do.  For myself that experience has always inspired me and motivated me to continue training and growing as a martial practitioner.  It has also evolved to a point that I study alot of film as well.  Just like a professional athlete researching their next opponent.  So when you get a chance step outside of your box and see what other people are doing and analyze it and experience it!

…..With that in mind I was surfing yesterday and came across a nice aikido demonstration.  There is quite a bit of varied technique in this clip so enjoy!

See You On The Mats When You Step Outside Of Your Box!
