This may be the last part in this series that I write. It’s definitely the shortest but it is by no means the end for anyone, including myself. I often believe that I am not teaching people how to fight, but how not to. The tools that I and my fellow instructors give our students, just as we exchange among ourselves are meant to insure safety.
What’s the best way to be safe? To not be in danger.
What’s the most effective block? Not being there in the first place.
How do you avoid being hit? By not making yourself a target.
All of these ideas have something lurking in the background. It can be hard to fathom and sometimes it’s the younger ones among us who see it first. They haven’t had time to have had their vision clouded and distorted by time.
Wisdom.
You’re gonna know when and when not to. It can be a difficult road, especially for those of us that have anger and other less positive emotions tucked away inside ourselves but . . .
. . . you will know.
