Fighting without protective gear
Safety is very important when practicing martial arts, especially for beginners. I know a famous and very respected teacher that used to always say, "be careful, we all have to go to work tomorrow".

How often should you incorporate counters and reversals into your flow drills?
While most FMA styles contain flow drills that aid in honing one’s skill I often wonder how often should we (as instructors) disrupt or modify flow drills by incorporating counters and reversals? The one thing I can appreciate most of all with the FMA’s is that we always delve into what if scenarios, and treat our opponent, even in practice, as possibly being skilled enough to counter our…
