While I taught a system of karate, in reality at every rank I teach what I feel the individual needs to better progress in their art and studies.
While there is a
great deal of simultaneity at the beginning studies, as time passes over the
decades it becomes more individualized based on why the individual is
continuing their studies.
All advanced
students to not have the same needs.
In reality they
control what they choose to rely on from their study. While each is exposed to
the same training, in actuality it is
they not me who must feel what they would use in conditions extremis. It never
is about one size fits all.
There is an old
adage that karate training takes continual practice. I do not agree.
What is really
required is that karate training must take correct practice.
If one is
working on something and it is incorrect what is happening is the practice is
reinforcing that imperfection in your
capabilities. Then is that is ever to be removed from one, you have to
unlearn what is incorrect and begin again to learn the correct way.
Far better to
work on the correct practice from the beginning and then to continue to
practice correctly.
