Mixed Martial Arts -Continued Sunday, April 20, 2008 So if you happen to be a fan of the UFC or any of the Mixed Martial Arts hype and have viewed it on television then you often hear things like "he is using his Ju Jitsu right now" or "he has great striking skills". Every time I hear these comments I get disgusted by the ignorance. I will admit that it is truly beneficial for fighters to train in many things, in fact, very beneficial if they want to make themselves well rounded. This missing ingredient is their true understanding that everything they are learning separately is actually interconnected and part of a bigger martial sciences picture they will never understand unless they are exposed to some very rare individuals.

You can hear it in the announcer's commentary. Saying things like "that is strong a Ju Jitsu move" is like saying a tomato is Italian because you are currently eating it in a pasta sauce. The popular labels of things presented in the media are over simplified, misguided and leading people to what they think is the answer to their deeper questions when in fact it is simply not.

So you might ask where the answers exist? How do you follow the pursuit of true martial sciences? First of all, stop watching TV and believing anything the media tells you. Second, start doing some research and finding the handful of people who know the truth and have the actual depth of knowledge you seek.
