Not all self defense is hard or violent... Sometimes it can be slow and intentional. Really depends how one classifies or define what self defense is.

Yes combatives are hard, chaotic and violent.... but we don't live our lives under that state of being, nor can we... It would put us under a state of crisis all the time.

We often spend more time in life looking for... or searching for peace in a loud world of chaos. Often peace is a matter of moments that we choose for ourselves, and often that peace can be right in front of us. The softer side of self defense comes with benefits from just doing simple and controlled movements and regulated breathing... With intention.

We call this exercise "Washing the Bottle". A moving meditation based on Buddhism's 8 fold path... It's merely a tool to be used when you need too. When life gets tough, or confusing... A process or system of working things out.

Provides oxygen to the system, can be used as a method of stretching or conditioning... Provides the system time to regulate thoughts, feelings and coordinates it with movement in a world that gives and takes.

These are the quiet moments of reflection and intention where time slows down... spent on yourself, for yourself... Breathing, living and where work is done without others watching.

In a crazy world... slow down and "look for the good" as noted in our Crest. (Kaishu)

Just breathe . Peace
