Does Your Self-Defense Training Suffer From This?
Do you know why it's getting more and more difficult to find the "best" martial art or self-defense system?
Do you have any idea why, if your attacker has been paying attention and not living under a rock somewhere, that it's getting harder and harder to have the advantage in a fight or self-defense attack situation?
It's because...
Everyone is doing the same thing!
I don't mean that all the martial arts styles and self-defense systems are doing exactly the same thing, but...
When you look at each style or system, you very quickly see that vitually everyone is focused on applying the same skills, against the same targets, and in practically the same way... REGARDLESS of what they're calling what they do.
On top of that, if you take a good, hard look at the way Ninjutsu, Ninpo-taijutsu, or Budo-Taijutsu (whatever you want to call it) is being practiced today, by and large, most teachers and students are doing the exact same thing. Everyone is saying that their art or system is "best," when in fact they are going about things that the teachers and students in the conventional martial arts are doing.
I call this, taking the Path of "Greater-Sameness."
Everyone wants to do the same thing as everyone else... only better.
The problem with this is that, every fighter, attacker, and potential threat to your well-being... has seen your moves before.
He may not have seen your stance or kamae, but he's seen one like it.
He certainly expects you to "block" or counter what he's doing - regardless of whether you call it a "block" or a ken-nagashi, or whatever.
In fact, if he can see what you're doing - at ALL -even a little bit...
whether he's trained or not...
He's NOT going to let you do your cool moves... BECAUSE he can see them coming.
So...
What's the answer?
Well, I can tell you that, for starters, it does not lie in or on the Path of "Greater-Sameness."
In fact, if you're going to be able to survive, you absolutely must think differently.
About fighting.
About conflict.
About Self-defense.
And about "Surviving violence."
You must think about these things from the perspective that no one else is doing. Not other martial artists. Not other self-defense "experts" and practitioners. And not even others studying the same art that you are!
That goes for the everything from the way you punch, kick, and apply a joint lock, to the way you actually think about and assess a violent situation.
My "Inner-Circle" students know this. My in-house, dojo students know this. And those who attend my intensive seminars and yearly Ninja camps know this.
And now it's time for you to know and understand this fundamental truth, if you're going to get out of the same trap that every other student and teacher of martial arts and self-defense are caught in.
Now, if you think that you don't need to know this... that what you're doing is perfect and unbeatable... or if you think I'm "full of it," then I wish you all the "luck" should you ever find yourself in the "thick of things."
But, if this is something that you think you want to explore, to know and understand, to Master...
Then, I have a special treat for you. Because...
I recently conducted a special, closed-door and private online training session with some of my most serious students to discuss not only the problem of "Greater-Sameness," but also to teach alternatives that are literally so far outside the proverbial "box," that your opponent can't see them to defend against them!
You're in luck because I recorded the entire class and I am making the recording available to serious students who want to learn how to escape the deadly trap of greater sameness-based training and action.
Am I describing you? Do you want one of these copies so you can learn what my close, personal students know about real-world self-defense?
If so, all you need to do to claim your free copy of this powerful tele-class, is to send me an email with the words, "Greater Sameness" in the subject block, and then a quick note to say you're requesting the link to the recording.
That's it!
But, you need to hurry because this isn't something that I'm going to be offering for free for very long.
So... if you want to listen in on this private, closed-door, training session... send that email request right now!
