Duet of Movement

Among the important martial art skills, there is something called circular movement. It starts as a large circular movement, then gradually becomes smaller. Generally, it's better to move in smaller motions than large ones, as these are more efficient and effective when applied to realistic fighting. Perhaps that is why among martial arts leaders, students are taught small-motion skills from the beginning. But here lies the problem. If you learn skills by making smaller movements from the beginning, your skills will not improve. In the end, your effort will be wasted. No matter how much you practice, your skills do not improve.

Even if large movements are not useful in realistic situations, you should practice with larger movements, at first. When practising bigger movements, mistakes are easily revealed, and can be easily fixed. If the techniques are large and clear, it also means that core muscles are properly used. When the core muscles are used properly, the body also changes into a body capable of producing power. Repeating the techniques with a large motion, and then reducing the size of motion, is a great way to learn and improve.

If you can complete your techniques with a small powerful movement, the possibility of the techniques being used in real situation increases. However there is another important point. Even if you have moved up to the stage where you can perform skills with small circles, you should continue to also practice with big circles, as there are many benefits to this practice. In the end, techniques are complete only when both large circles and small circles are freely available to the practitioner.

Food can taste differently depending on how it is cooked. Joint Locking techniques can also produce various effects, depending on the training method employed (and the way you practice .)

To use Joint Locking techniques in real situations, you must break the opponent's balance. Joint locking techniques cannot be used in real situations unless the opponent's center is broken. However, there is a practice method that does not break the opponent's balance, yet gives essential skill, over a short period of time. There are four components in this practice method.

First, there needs to be a method of programming the joint locking techniques into the body. In real situations, the body has to move itself reflexively. It must be made to instinctively remember the skill it has practiced. Repetition is an important part of programming, but it must be done correctly.

Second, training has to be make the body efficient enough to save your strength. If you don't spare your strength in real situations, you'll soon get tired and be unable to defend yourself. To deal with multiple opponents at once, you must use a minimum of force to overpower those opponents.

Third, there is a need to stabilize the breathing. To learn how to swim, you have to learn breathing first. You can't swim when your breathing becomes unstable. Likewise, if you don't know how to use your skills while maintaining stable breathing, your body becomes heavier and you lose speed. Therefore, you should learn how to stabilize your breathing. Sitting down with composed breathing, like yoga, is not enough. Breathing needs to remain stable even through intense physical activity.

Fourth, it is necessary to keep the posture correct. Correct posture means using your body as a unit, not only moving your arms. Poor posture makes techniques messy, and weak. Strong force arises from using correct posture during a technique.

Choosing one of the joint locking techniques. and repeating it over and over again using the above components, is not sufficient for use in actual battle. But you can make a wonderful dish by adding other spices called; "How to Break Center" and “Timing” , and with these you can produce an outstanding dish.
