Fall Seven, Rise 8
The name is taken from a Japanese proverb- Nanakorobi yaoki. This translates literally into “fall seven times and stand up eight.”What does it mean? When life knocks you down, stand back up; What matters is not the bad that happened, but what one does after.Beyond resilience, beyond “grit’, there’s a deeper meaning – one of iterative learning. Each time you are knocked down you stand up stronger, smarter, and better. It’s in essence the story death and rebirth which parallels that of the Greek myth of the Phoenix being consumed by fire and then being reborn in the ashes of that fire. But it’s not just the same Phoenix being reborn – in the cycle of falling and getting back up, of death and rebirth, there’s something more that is created.

Perceptional Speed
- when fighting, martial artists must constantly sense and respond to various stimuli. Mastering the ability to perceive the subtleties in an opponent's movements, is he attacking, retreating, punching or kicking? Seeing the opponent's movement is not enough. You must learn to hear, feel and smell the opponent's intentions.
- Perceptional speed is defined as the time it takes you to mentally register the opponent's intentions once you first sense his offensive or defensive stimulus.
- You must learn not to concentrate on the details, but sense everything.
Mental / Decision speed
- Is the time you decide on how to respond. Do you evade, block, parry, jam, intercept or counter his attack? Your decision speed is determined by the length of time it takes you to sense the opponents attack and select the appropriate response. Your ultimate goal is to be able to respond quickly and instinctively.
- Your ultimate goal is to respond quickly and instinctively
Initiation speed
- is the time that it takes to transfer your decision to action. You must condition yourself to relay the opponent's stimulus to your brain and then react as quickly. The slightest hesitation can mean the difference between being hit or hitting the opponent
Performance speed
- the time it takes you to get from point A to point B is your performance or raw speed.
Re-action time lag
- is the time that it takes a person to become aware that something is happening and respond. It is not instantaneous and if your opponent lacks a telegraphing movement, it is difficult if not impossible to block
