i agree with thomas, this is ridiculous, and i haven't even seen the vid, lol
although i doubt thomas knows much himself
you must understand your own body and how the human mind works, techniques are useless, they just make fighting concepts more of a neater and tighter package
1. belts are just to hold your pants up, no one cares if the belt is black or not, all you need to do is remember your form and break some boards and you get your belts easily.
2. like bruce lee said, styles just confuses the real objective 10 yrs of karate is useless in a real fight, EVEN if you do sparing, why? because you can't predict moves only react to them
quick example is if your busy trading hits, the guy can suddenly run and tackle you, something that surprises you, why? because even in sparring you expect a smooth rhythm, what you don't understand is ANYTHING can disturb rhythm, a non martial artist could still win, let alone a person who tries to tackle you has jujitsu or wrestling knowledge
watch youtube school fights, or street fighters, the real form of fighting with no skills, it is just barbaric sledging each other with fists then they tackle you, your techniques are useless once pinned down
if you want REAL self-defence do speed training and also increase your strength, and the understand of the human mind works, eg. how the opponent may cheat, skills like kungfu/karate etc come later
dont listen to this video. there are numerous things wrong with it. i just wrote a half hour comment on why you shouldnt listen to this video and it all got erased because my internet connection died. Ive been taking karate for over ten years and im a third degree black belt. if you are really concerned with your safty take a self defense class.
