Is It Realistic to Train in Two Different Martial Arts at Once
In the practiced sometime days before the fragmentation of the 'original' martial arts ways into all the 'dissimilar schools' There was really not this mode or that - it wasn't stand up and exist counted - or lay downward in your pyjamas and hug people. The martial 'arts' were complete systems in and of themselves. The quondam masters took on very few students. They were very advisedly chosen. They were trained upright AND laying down. They were living in a world of constant war and danger (sounds like nearly now 'eh) "Know you lot enemy" was a simple but profound edict. Your enemy may be a pugilist, a grappler, an oarsman, a farmer, brigand, mad monk, etc, etc. He may have a sword, a spear, a halberd, an oar, a club, etc, etc.
The fragmentation came about when sometime masters passed abroad and families fractured and members went their separate ways. We became aware of this in Australia. In 1958 we had the Polish man Slagowski in Blacktown roughing it out with many pugilists, wrestlers,bouncers,policemen, prison guards, and brawlers. In the early 1960's We had little Merv Oakly return from Nihon with Go Ju Kai (came from the Go Ju Ryu systems of Okinowa to Japan. In 1966 we had Tino Ceberano in Melbourne doing Go Ju Kai. We had many people of kyu grades exit these schools and kickoff up there own way. Nosotros and then had Richard Bradford (founded Goshin Ryu). We also had Dan grades like Bob Jones (created Zen Practise Kai) - then came Go Shin Kan and Go Kan Ryu (Door Knocker Karate). Many styles many ways - some very constructive others not so.
An old Okinowa main asked of prospective students (masters of other schools, ways,countries) What they did for a living - what was their profession. If they answered that their school was their profession he would dump them. Y'all must have a dissever ways of funding your life and household. If you get money solely from your school you volition exist sorely tempted to adopt more students and so that y'all could prosper and survive. This seems to exist the mod institutional system, or mode where you are guaranteed a black belt within 12-15 months !!!! More students - bigger school - bigger schoolhouse - bigger reputation - bigger rep - more schools ad infinitum. Hence we accept the stand ups versus the grapplers. The kickboxers versus the boxers. etc. etc. Now we have UFC, MMA, ABC etc. etc. Where Everyone is yearning for the COMPLETE system. Yous may indeed have to railroad train in 2 or more separate martial arts these days to find a completeness - a wholeness in your martial arts. People nowadays fifty-fifty want to belittle, devalue, or even negate the 'ART' office of Martial arts. The 'martial' is the fighting for survival function of it. The 'art' part is the ability to heal what has been damaged or redress the residuum.
In the 'pure' Tai Chi (supreme ultimate pole - modern day is Chuan or fist) the practitioner is an observer of all that is. When other 'martial artists' see a conflict or an enemy approaching they adopt the force to force principles or correct is might!!!! Sadly a mistaken assumption - they will accept already lost because they have enmeshed themselves with 'the opponents' inner demons. The Tai Chi practitioner does non see a 'confrontation' they see only that the other person is out of rest - they are unwell - or are aggress past some inner demons. The Tai Chi person then activates the 'art' organisation of healing and rebalancing. They become smoke to the other persons mirror. They practice not go the mirror THEY BECOME THE OTHER PERSON (borrow their congested and/ or leaking free energy) they return to their own source and then release that 'borrowed' energy back into the unbalanced or imbalanced person. This puts congested energy and leaking energy through the yin - yang tumbler and restores it to a balanced menstruation. The person then no longer seeks a 'confrontation' with themselves by the use of LATERAL VIOLENCE !!!!! (taking it out on your fellows - family - friends etc.). The future comes soon where all 'ways' - 'schools' 'styles' and 'systems volition blend one time more into the one truthful manner of the MARTIAL ARTS !!!!
