If you carry a gun in a holster or if you don’t use a holster and carry with the gun tucked into your pants or clothing, and whether it is concealed or not, you must remember this rule: anything you carry may be used against you! If you carry any type of firearm, no matter the status of the firearm whether drawn or not, and you are in a confrontation, it will be considered a firearm confrontation. If you carry a knife into a confrontation, it also will be considered a knife confrontation even if you didn’t mean for it to be one. These rules are important to understand because of the third stage of a conflict. ( View Article)

By Anthony R. DiFilippo ( Biography) The common human response to falling is the most dangerous. Although most people instinctively protect their heads, they will reach out to catch themselves and break an arm or wrist. Apprehension causes them to tense their body when makes it more susceptible to injury and causes the forces of the fall to travel through the body to the brain causing dizziness or even unconsciousness.

I honestly believe that Kyu-Shin-Do has lost its true path in Britain and has become many things to many people. Kenshiro Abbe Sensei came to Britain in 1955 at the invitation of the London Judo Society ( LJS ). He considered the Judo that he saw to be too concerned with strength, also too physical and hard. It was his intent to introduce his theory of Kyu-Shin-Do to the British Judoka. They in turn found it hard to understand that if they followed his teaching of Kyu-Shin-Do Judo which he himself had studied from as early as 1940 their own Judo skills would become stronger by technique rather than strength.

by Antonio Graceffo ( View Biography) "This isn't Hollywood," said the Shan lieutenant. "When people get blown up here, they die for real." Getting blown up was a definite possibility. The Burmese Federal Army (SPDC), the Wa State tribal Army, and God knew how many other hostile armed factions were encamped on the hilltops surrounding the Shan State Army headquarters of Doi Tailang, where I had come to teach unarmed combat techniques to the Shan soldier.

By DOM AMORE Over the last decade or so, ultimate fighting, or mixed martial arts — which combines the skills of judo, boxing, karate, Muay Thai, kickboxing, tae kwon do, jujitsu and wrestling — has become one of the most popular sports on the landscape.

By Jim Wagner ( View Bio) Unlike traditional-based or sport-based martial arts, one of the most important components of the reality-based martial arts is the concept of “A to Z training.” What this means is that all conflict drills and exercises have three stages: 1. a realistic starting point 2. technique performance 3. a reasonable finishing point. This concept can best be illustrated with an actual incident that occurred in Canada several years ago, and just recently in Finland, and I am sure there are countless unreported occurrences.
