Kumi-Tai is the core of the style and is the main arena where all of our techniques come together. At the beginner level it is performed at a slow pace allowing the student to experiment safely and learn how to deal with a variety of attacks.
The emphasis is always on safety and learning, we often refer to this as ‘play fighting’ . As such we are not learning to fight but we are learning the skills of fighting.
It is difficult to harmonise with an opponent, especially one who is determined to hurt you. This discipline is directed more toward self-control and the subduing of others through their compliance by using the attackers force to apply strikes, immobilisation's or throws. |

Knowing harmony is constancy. Knowing constancy is enlightenment.
