There is a question in the martial arts that, before myself, has never been asked. Nobody has ever come up with the notion that the martial arts are a puzzle. That means that no one, in the history of the martial arts, has ever solved the puzzle.

When the question occurred to me, and I solved the puzzle, I was struck by a fabulous concept. I discovered the True Art that people talk about but never actually get to. I also found out why people come up short when trying to find the True Art.

Amazingly, hard core physics is at the heart of the True Art. Physics is the study of all motion in the universe. Physics is what what students must know if they are to ever reach the True Art.

In the beginning, I studied all the martial arts that I could. I read the magazines and bought the books, I compiled a library of books concerning the various arts and styles. If a new martial artist came to town I sought him out and learned what I could. Computers came along, and suddenly I was able to access martial arts across the whole planet.

I began making records of all the techniques that I knew. I covered the backs of business cards with them and laid them out across my living room. The thousands of cards covered with the techniques of hundreds of arts and styles.

I began to compile the techniques into categories. I labeled them by kick or punch, by straight or by circular, by whatever concept of art I could think of. I even tried categorizing them by where they had originated.

Slowly, I began to filter out the duplicate techniques. I threw away all the poser techniques; those techniques in which the attacker has to wait for the defender to do the technique. Eventually, the number of cards grew smaller and became more manageable. In the end I was left with 40 techniques.

Thats all the martial arts are, you know, forty techniques. Every other technique in every other art is, in some manner or other, nothing more than a copycat of one of the forty techniques. But the real blessing wasnt just that I came up with the source forty techniques of the Martial Arts, the real blessing was that I began to see threads of commonality that no one else had ever seen.

The Martial Arts have been solved, the puzzle has been put together so that everybody can see it. That puzzle, once viewed is an incredible doorway into the True Art. The Golden Age of the martial arts has now begun.
