an applied system of cognitive science
utilizing the principles of embodied cognition to treat the physical form as a primary training ground for the mind
fundamental movement / dimensionality
influenced by the mechanics of muay chaiya, muay thai, traditional martial arts and bodyweight movement reduced to its essential components of expression
all physical action analyzed and trainined within three dimensions: rotation, translation, extension
this systematic approach explores the relationship between interacting forces and relies on mastering the operational concepts of alignment and polarity to ensure maximum integrity and efficiency of expression
through isolating and mastering these mechanical variables, practitioners simultaneously develop essential self-defence skills and a robust framework for self-development
practice as self-development
rigorous application of form fosters acute internal and external observation, allowing the practitioner to recognize aspects of their experience that are within their control and accept that which is not
this intentional process cultivates a transferable conceptual understanding universally applicable to social interaction, internal regulation, and personal growth
