Subtle Martial Arts Movement. What is the Art of Stealth?

* Subtle Martial Arts Movement

Subtle Martial Arts Movement. What is the Art of Stealth? Something happened decades ago as the martial arts came from the Orient to the Western Culture. They went from covert to overt in nature.  

And Hollywood is certain to blame for part of this as they exploited the arts for profit. But that is what they do. At first it seemed like a good thing, but I personally do not see it that way any longer.

What is Subtle Martial Arts Movement? It comes from cloaking what you are doing in response to an attacker. And it comes from taking the BIG motions first learned in the martial arts and making them smaller movement.  Using the lower base of the body to move correctly and on time.

Subtle Martial Arts Movement

Today martial arts is about competition. And competition has nothing to do with life. I know so many great martial artists my age who stopped learning decades ago. Today these men and women remissness on Facebook about their glory days. 

And the saddest part is, they stopped learning. My biggest strong suit is I have a deep thirst to learn. And over the years in the arts I have come realization that when someone tells me they "have it' or "understand it' this means they DO NOT.

That is a pure function of ego talking. One of my favorite quotes of all time is "I am the wisest man in the world because I know I know nothing" from Socrates. And in today's culture of 'experts' you see this truth. I have never met an expert in my life. Many who "claim" to be, but really only egotists. I am nothing other than a student.

Martial Arts lost its BITE when people began to show off.

Subtle Martial Arts Movement - Social Media

Social Media like Facebook or Instagram are parasites. They build false egos in people because they can pretend to be something they are not. So tell me are all these pretty young females showing of kicks to teach people to kick? Or to simply attract comments about their bodies? Exploitation to build ego.

Why would ANYONE want to show off, and tell whom ever could be stalking you on these social media platforms what you can do? And yes stalking on social media is easy. Anyone can do it.

And then there are all the people who send me their "fight" videos. I do not care about this crap!  It is very sad that people now, think this is what martial arts stands for. Pathetic tough guy competitions that PROVE NOTHING!

Subtle Martial Arts Movement - Self Defense

Martial Arts should be SUBTLE. It is not bragging rights. Self Defense, TRUE self defense is FIRST to concur the self. Control the ego! Then to prepare for something you pray will never happen, the need to hurt another human being. You have NO RIGHT to do so, unless it is your life or someone else's life at stake because of anothers violence.

Yet today in the FAILED Western Culture violence is entertainment. And of course since everyone insists on showing off everything they can do there are no surprises for the attackers. They are prepared, you are not

What is the art of stealth? Cloaking your motion outside of the visual plane of an attacker.  Keeping quiet about your training. Never showing off or fighting for selfish reasons. You must learn about Subtle Martial Arts Movement.

Subtle Martial Arts Movement Conclusion

Subtle Martial Arts Movement in Conclusion

Subtle Martial Arts Movement: This was not supposed to be a rant.

But I am sorry society needs a good kick in the ass. Especially the martial arts community who insist on showing off and bragging. 

So when someone attacks you on the street and you get destroyed do not complain.  Because you need to show off this will be your Karma.

Back about 2 years ago I read where some big MMA star got destroyed in a bar by a civilian. It looks good on him, Obviously if you cannot control yourself in a bar you get what you have coming to you.  Today when someone asks me about martial arts it is always, "did you see that fight??" No longer "what are the arts about? How can I learn.

Enough said.

Recently I had someone come to me looking for high rank, a promotion, without proper substantiation of anything. Also not wanting to pay because of the "pandemic" BS. I think we have had enough of that CRIMINAL LIE for a lifetime.

But also pushing the work "humanitarian" reasons. I did not resurrect the WBA  for people who are corrupted to get rank. Sorry this is NOT a promotion site. It is here to spread the values and teachings of the martial arts for the world.

Not for fight clubs to promote themselves or for person gain.

I hope you enjoyed this article called Subtle Martial Arts Movement.
