Also this teaches dirty and lethal techniques aimed to abuse the weakest and most painful parts of the body. Like punching up below the lungs in the weak spot to knock the air out of someone. Not exactly friendly especially for mma where rules hinder these kind of easy techniques that render an opponent immobile rather quickly if it lands

And how you would explain a technique, oh grand master of all the paths? If your student ask you where is the control or the point of presure in a technique, are you going to just make some shitty flashy anime movements to demonstrate it?

Or maybe cause you're not allowed to use your fingers to specifically target weak points with little defense. have you tried some of the karate finger techniques on yourself? Even just lightly pressing hurts like a bitch

I saw a poster where they promoted some club training BJ Thai boxing krav maga and mma. I don't my teacher this and asked why not as many trained this as much anymore. They want to do sport and win. Some like one guy went on some championships and won some gold medals and a girl went to Thailand and fight there. The reason why our art wasn't that popular is because, we use a lot of dirty tricks and moves. And it certainly is true. Even very early as just a few weeks newbie we're taught attacks to the throat, liver and weak points around the head using our fingers and pointing thumbs which he pointed out to be very careful when using, or not even use the fingers at all due to how easy it is to hit a weak point seriously. Even just training to learn the techniques hurt. Like punching the upper arm and when their lower abdomen muscles are stretched you thrust your thumb point first right in. One light thrust as a practice was enough for me to back every time he did it. It hurts and would make mma fights end insanely fast, and end with a lot more broken small bones

Bruce Lee was famed to be too fats for the camera. His own trained speed and reaction alone was enough for him to not need a martial art. When we train our techniques we do it slowly to catch in. But our instructors always start too fast to catch wtf is going on. Then they show the slow version. But when you see them just going casually without their full speed it's still insanely fast. We follow the steps and take our time, but our teachers have learnt them over so many years that to them it's almost normal. Plus we have one teacher who corrects the other teachers XD he sits on the side and when the other instructors do one step wrong or so he comes in and is ruthless. I'm actually afraid when I do something wrong cause if they want me to attack them or show how it's done, they do it so fast or so good that he doesn't even have to try or use his strength at all. When mastered these things are fucking painful. Especially when it's a joint lock or a different kind of dodge/defense where they strike vulnerable muscles and parts so you will hurt for days. Still fun though
