Here is a picture perfect example of the inherent problem with Bullshido…
"Many years ago (1969 in fact), I was at a Wrestling Competition (as a
spectator), at the ‘Parochial Hall’ in Bolton, Lancashire. One of the
bouts was to be in Lancashire Catch Style… About 10 minutes into it,
I saw what I thought was a superb counter move by one of the
wrestlers, and I clapped loudly. However, in the audience of about
200. only SIX other people applauded this move …And we all looked at
each other and nodded… Speaking to one of those who had clapped,
after the evening ended, it turned out the he also had done some
Lancashire Catch, and had seen the move.
What this slight aside is meant to illustrate, is like a lot of the
older styles, it is NOT a very good spectator sport, and needed someone
who had actually done a little to both recognise and appreciate the
moves.’
MORAL OF THE STORY: YOU CAN ONLY SEE WHAT YOUR MIND CAN HANDLE. IF YOU DONT KNOW IT EXISTS, IT DOESNT. NOT FOR YOU. SOME THINGS ARE BEYOND YOUR BOTH YOUR PERCEPTION AND ABILITY.
despite this, you(you being the collective brain fart that came up with this rationale), in your infinite wisdom decide that there is no difference between methods and relegate everything to ‘technique’.
that fucking word doesnt even mean anything! it is so damn subjective no one can give a clear definition, except to vomit shit out of the dictionary,… and btw, that would be the first clue that they dont know what it means.
you people must be some of the most advanced martial artists on the planet, to be able to go beyond all systems like that. I am amazed at your insight in the martial arts…true innovators. you all must be fucking genuises to boot…
you ain’t reinventing the wheel, no matter how much you think you are.
fucking cretins dont even know the fundamentals, and you want to scrap the systems.
what? BAJI=Boxing=Hsing Yi=Hung Gar=Baguachang=Thai Boxing…c’mon, you cant be serious. dont you guys know anything?
boy, that is one hell of a command decision.
