Kung Fu – Are You A Mighty Oak Tree?

There are only 2 types of fighters in the world. Those that use their strength and those that use skill. Unless you understand the principles of energy you will always loose to a stronger opponent. Interestingly enough is the fact that unless there is a resisting force it is impossible for strength to be used against you.

Kung Fu – Final Thoughts

I have always believed that a true self defense system is one that a small woman would be able to use effectively against an attacker. I have heard some pretty silly things when it comes to self – defense for example  I had a conversation with a woman who told me she was taught in a class to get raped and don’t resist it. In this way you will be able to live another day.

My jaw dropped, there are like a million and 1 different things you can do in rape situations , laying their like a dead fish is not one of the options I would choose, nor is it one of the “techniques” I would want my daughters to use.

Understanding how to connect, conform and control energy is the great equalizer.  knowing this and a 240lb man can do nothing to a 130lb woman.  Just look at Bruce Lee, in reality he was a small man. Don’t quote me on this, but I believe he was around 125lbs when he was making Enter The Dragon. He could seriously kick the snot out of a 300lb man.

Ultimately it is not the person who trains harder that will be the victor, it is the person that trains smarter that will if you know what I mean.
