Statement of Purpose

This project is an investigation of 5 Martial Arts styles. Self-defense is a major theme in martial arts today and to better understand how different martial arts schools and styles treat self-defense I am going to learn all I can (given time restraints) about each of the five styles. These schools will be chosen from a list of local martial arts studios, and the style will be the one that is taught at that studio. Many studios teach multiple styles, so in this case on of the styles taught there will be analyzed. At the end of the project all the schools I visited will be rated and scored to show in which areas they excel or by contrast, fall short.

An Evening Contemplation

Dear Readers,
        In an attempt to provide evidence in my ability to accuratly judge the merits of martial arts self-defense capabilities i have provided previous works of mine in this area, please take a look at the attached pages to view a thesis essay on self defense, a performance of a self defense based kata and a self defense technique that i created myself.
      The technique describes the movements sufficiently to attempt on your own- warning, be aware that all described manuevers are intended for martial artists and so if you have never trained in the martial arts before use caution before attampting any of these actions.
Thank You
Mr. Waaler
