(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page) Well, the idea is to have one website, but many people participating.

My experience training with Tuhon mirrors exactly what you describe. The principles and keys are shown to you, but it's up to you to study and put in the time to explore and discover the connections. Then build off of it. I believe having to put in the time & exploration leads to a greater understanding of the principles and mechanics behind the material. As Tuhon says, "It's not the years, it's the hours trained". >>>You will not be given the next step until you pick up on the first one. >>> This is contrary to the "technique accumulation" approach that many in the MA world are used to. It's not about learning technique 1A, 1B, 1C for level one. Technique 2A, 2B, 2C for level two etc... It's focused more on learning the principles of movement (footwork, striking mechanics & power generation), angles of attack & counter-offense and the ability to combine these aspects together in a fluid, powerful and effective manner across weapon categories. That's not to say that "techniques" are not taught, once you have the foundation system down, you work strategy and tactic methods. Each method prescribes a specific strategy, a combative plan or principle, and accompanying tactics, techniques or skills of execution. PT is a complete system where strategies and tactics, techniques and skills are encompassed into an integrated working composition. Each method addresses a specific strategy and then provides different tactics and techniques that simultaneously incorporate footwork, offensive and counter-offensive combative application and attribute development. Each of these components can be isolated and trained individually to perfect each particular movement. It's a dynamic approach & thought-provoking process of learning that stimulates thought and in depth study to a higher degree then rote memorization of techniques. I teach more in this method as well and it does tend to throw off new students who are used to other approach. I try to explain the reasoning behind it. Some get it and stay with it, some don't and move on.

The webpage has full details, price as well as a quicktime preview. The DVD focuses on the routines and training regimens of indian wrestlers at several different akharas or wrestling gymnasiums. Those who are fans of karl gotch's training or combat conditioning can access the template that formed the basis for this specific type of workout or workouts with multiple variations. Its part of an ongoing research into the various indigenous wrestling methods of india and se asia. The proceeds from the sales go toward my next research trip to complete my upcoming book The Vanishing Flame and toward translating the many texts I acquired over the long years of traveling and training. If anyone wants to pay by paypal, there is an account for that and you can personally email me for further information.
