Myth #1 :
Traditional karate has been proven in-effectice against modern mixed martial-arts (MMA) and grappling styles like Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
TRUTH: |
Many judge how good a style is based on how well a practitioner of that style performs in the ring. The fallacy of this thinking is in the assumption that the individual's skills represent the effectiveness of that style.
For example: On a given day, a boxer may win a match against a wrestler. This does not mean boxing is always better than wrestling. It just means, in that match, that boxer out performed that wrestler . It is a matter of which individual is more well practice in their discipline.
Sensei Saddler reminded us that "There is always someone better than you" This was one of his ways to push you to continue to hone and improve your skills.
