…..Okay while on vacation I saw quite a few water falls and even had the distinct pleasure of swimming in them and feel them cascading down on me. This was absolutely exhilarating and breathtaking! Which brings me to this post. Water can eek around things, erode land, cover things, go over over rocks, etc. It is very hard to stop water movement and this is because of it’s liquidity and it’s ability to move. In other words it is flexible! In the Martial Sciences having the ability to adapt or be flexible is a crucial key element for combative practitioners. Out there anything can happen and there are infinite possibilities of how you can react to a situation. In IRT being flexible and having the ability to utilize excellent movement is essential. Movement coupled with the ability to change will give you advantages in the moment. That in the end is all we can ask for to have an advantage! If you have an advantage and can implement it then you have a chance!
See You On The Mats!
