WHAT IS YOUR STYLE?
So very often i find people in the martial arts community that ask the question of "What is
your Style". Well even more often i find that their motives are not genuine, and it is
simply their attempt to degrade you and try to compare what you do to their art.
This is really tragic, because if someone is studying a particular discipline, doesn't mean
that their style or system is the same as the next persons. Unfortunately, this is an everyday
occurrence for some. Some form of martial arts have existed on planet earth, ever since the
very first human being. Even those Karate systems dated one or two hundreds before today,
owe their existence to other arts that came before them . So what makes them the authority
over anything new? The answer is a resounding...Nothing.
The Martial arts, like anything else should always evolve with the times. It is okay to keep alive previous traditional arts,along with their great history, but it is not okay to assume that they are the only measuring stick used to judge any other art that comes after them.
