If your martial art has never failed, you haven’t tested it. No style owns the truth—every system has holes. Cross-train. Pressure test. Stay humble. 💬 Agree or disagree? #MartialArts #CrossTraining #Karate #JiuJitsu #MuayThai #PressureTesting #MartialArtsTruth Watch the full podcast here👇🏻👇🏻 https://youtu.be/UmdmP1HF0RQ?si=f3aKhYOUTGGLxXKX

Cross-training exposes the gaps we never notice when we stay inside one style. Karate, jiu-jitsu, striking, grappling—everything improves when you stop chasing “complete styles” and start chasing complete practitioners.

In this video, we explore offensive and defensive frame techniques across multiple martial arts systems — from Crazy Monkey Defense and ISR Matrix to Defense Lab and other modern structures. I break down how I’ve spent 20+ years integrating these ideas into my own training, blending striking, clinch, and self-defense frameworks into one functional approach. If you’ve ever wondered how to protect your head, control pressure, or strike while framing — this is for you. 👊🔥 #FrameTechniques #MartialArts #SelfDefense #CrazyMonkeyDefense #ISRMatrix #karate

Here are some seminar highlights from our November 22 strike, clinch, ground seminar. A demonstrate simple to use crash covers sharing the same mechanics as seen in Karate kihon like gedan berai and yoi salutations from kata. I use these to crash in, break balance, trap, limbs, and clinch strike. This can be used for self-defence and combat sport. Special thanks my collaborators, and good friends @RIZEMMA @AppliedShotokan and @GREATERTORONTOJJ for hosting #karate #martialarts #mma #clinch #selfdefense #karateunity #combattraining #striking #karateka #bunkai #liveflow #sparring #mmafighter #karatetraining #fighttraining

Becoming a complete martial artist takes more than just drilling one range. It requires planning, continuous learning, and pressure-testing your skills across striking, trapping, clinch, and ground. This video explores why adaptability, cross-training, and the mindset of being a lifelong student are essential for long-term growth. Keep evolving. Keep learning. Always be a student. #martialarts #crossTraining #karate #JKD #mma #martialartsjourney #fightermindset #alwayslearning
