Every honest martial artists knows he or her system is not complete. There are only a handful that are, and they are not easy to find teachers in. There are some great systems out there, but they are incomplete.
Bruce Lee built a reputation on saying that. He also admitted his system needed much work and growth.
Years ago I read one of the worst martial arts books I have ever seen. Confessions of a Grand Master or something like that. He would talk about things in other styles and they say how "we have that in.." Sounds like BS to me.
Now my root is a Hapkido / Taekwondo mix. I knew back 17 years ago how incomplete it was, so I began to study anything I felt I could add to the art, and still keep the major movement intact. People will develop interests and passions in certain areas, likes and dislikes. One very popular system being added or taught separately today is Krav Maga. Now it is not for me, I prefer Systema when we are talking combat systems, but it is great that martial artists look to expand those horizons.
Pressure Points / Kyusho Jitsu or whatever else you wish to call it is another fantastic addition to any martial arts study.
Why?
- It is pretty easy to integrate into any system
- It helps give meaning to movements that just don't seem to make sense.
- It allows for controller the escalation of a self defense situation. Combat systems don't really do that.
- It works!
