Where there is no style, there is no slave. Martial Arts mean honestly expressing yourself. No style. No slave.

All types of knowledge ultimately lead to self-knowledge. So, therefore, these people are asking me to teach them, not so much how to defend themselves or how to do somebody in. Rather, they want to learn to express themselves through some movement, be it anger, be it determination or whatever. So, in other words, they're paying me to show them, in combative form, the art of expressing the human body.

If you knew you had to fight for your life tomorrow, would you change your training today?

Dedication, absolute dedication, is what keeps one ahead!

If I should die tomorrow, I will have no regrets. I did what I wanted to do. You can't expect more from life.

I personally do not believe in the word style. Why? Because, unless there are human beings with three arms and four legs, unless we have another group of beings on earth that are structurally different from us, there can be no different style of fighting. Why is that? Because we have two hands and two legs. ... because of styles, people are separated. They are not united together because styles become law.

You need emotional content.
