The higher level self defence work is surprisingly unimpressive to watch.
There are no spinning kicks, barrel rolls or flashy moves.
Everything is quiet, elegant, graceful and sophisticated. Outward simplicity hides inner complexity.
Attackers are incapacitated without any fanfare.
An expert has the whole syllabus to call upon, but aims to find a humility of expression.
Instead of being egotistical, the expert is cautious and reserved. Calm and indifferent.
They do not demonstrate their skills readily.
The fighting spirit has been woven into every movement and is indicated by the sheer pragmatism of the applications.
Everything is performed comfortably and calmly - there is no doubt, no forcing and no fear.
The expert has nothing to prove.
