Martial arts takes time to learn. And as we grow as a person, I have found that the martial arts will unfold itself as needed. It will not disclose itself just because we want it to. First, one has to understand one point and the lesson that one learns from the point will reveal the next point. (By understanding I mean it has been an internalized – not just “I got the notes”) An old teacher from 40 years ago said, “even if you saw it, you would not recognize it,” in response to when I asked him about his advanced training. Until the first lesson is internalized, the next lesson will not reveal itself. That is the lesson – it is not written in the notes. Take your time and understand your lessons step-by-step.

When studying martial arts, it is very important to study distance. When we are doing are drills and randori (free movement), focus on how distance can change based on intent and whether the fight is armed or unarmed. Also know how this judgment works in life
