“The reason we want to know how we got in to the situation is so that we can look back and see if that situation was advantageous for us or a disadvantage. That way we can look at the statistics to determine which situations we want to avoid and which situations we want to recreate in the future.”

"To really understand how you can control your situation, we need to better know, what technique means in combat. Technique is direction and control. Directions are automated movements. We're going to focus on control today. Which is the fine motor skills of your head, your hands, your hips, your feet, and how they can adjust and move through an ever changing situation."

“Offense/Offense are the times in a match where both athletes need to score. Match is tied, 15 seconds left, who is going to pull the trigger to win. This is what we are talking about. This is attack and counter attacking. So no matter if you are acting or reacting the goal is to move forward in motion.”

“When the strategy calls the purpose of defense is to shut down your opponent. Refuse them the opportunity to attack and if they do minimize the damage it can create.”

“In combat the strategies and tactics of how to attack are determined by the strength of your opponent and the circumstances within the match. At the highest level of the sport, the most successful attacks are offensive attacks.”

“In combat the purpose of your attack is to lead to an advantageous position. In yoga you can look at our attack as an entrance to a position or pose.”
