MARTIAL ARTS

{R}EVOLUTION

No styles, no systems, no rituals, no lineages, no masters, no labels, no belts, no katas, no uniforms, no dogmas;

Only the process of self actualization & personal expression of truth through functional combative movement and fitness.

On a purely physical level, we share how to individually and collectively use all of our natural tools as well as extended ones, offensively and defensively in a strategic and tactical manner and in all ranges of combat.

We're put through functional physical fitness training where we learn to push ourselves through our own perceived limitations. We also have much to offer on nutrition, health and optimum performance.

On a more cerebral level we learn about the psychology of violence, fear, stress & confrontation management skills, deescalation strategies and holistic survival tactics.

As the mind navigates the body; by challenging personal self defense dogmas and individual & core belief systems, personal growth and evolution occurs.

On a human level, we learn about the ripple effect and the moral, legal, and ethical consequences of our chosen actions while self examining our darkest emotions. We are encouraged to question everything, to learn to think for ourselves, to be more accountable and research everything we learn and to be open and responsive to life without judgment.

On a personal level, the training can make you face and slay your own demons.

Everything shared here is highly encouraged to be individually researched, to “absorb what is useful, add what is specifically of your own and disregard the rest.”

A picture's worth 1000 words? How bout these?

The following are pictures I personally found to be both emotionally and thought provoking images. Go through them one by one (may take a few minutes, there are quite a few there) - what do each of these trigger in you and why?

Click on each one to see them larger and individually.





 































Hope you enjoyed the visuals... hope they both emotionally triggered and provoked thought in you and that the ripple effect be a positive one...

Much peace,
Rich

  1. That is one damn fine collection of images.

    Some fun, some love, some statements, some humanity, some joy, some loss and some cheeky.

    Very enjoyable. Thanks for sharing them!

  2. Thanks brother... each one very powerful on their own but one after another as such; I found it harder hitting...
