It is always great to hear people get something out of my writing.

You mentioned what you do outside the mat should be the same as the budo you practice – that is the essence of budo. It is not the martial arts, but rather “The way of the martial arts”. It is the one thing we who practice budo will always have over bujutsu (like jujutsu) – philosophical learning in addition to technique.

But better asking this question with this in mind– how is karate in my life? I believe that what one does outside the mat should be the way he/she practices in karate or any budo. Osu to another great article.

I have studied karate but still found this useful and some new information. I don’t think you were ranting! Your quite correct on you constructive criticism and I am going to read more of your posts.

I just hope everyone who read it remembers it when they go to criticize a video because the style is different. Thanks for stopping by Matt.
