Martial arts should not be a platform for displaying the ego. Methods that do can lead one down a wrong path.

Respect should always be offered to the opponent first. Often this can lead an attitude of dis-harmony into a peaceful resolution.

It takes greater courage to lead by truth than to lead with fear and deception.

Training in a martial art has no end, just a beginning.

Love never destroys; hate in itself bears the scars of countless battles.

Without some form of understanding of “ki”, the brain will always interpret technique from a physical perspective.

To care for others is the real martial art. To not care shows a disregard for yourself and the universe.
