The Impactzone Competitions Schedule 2008

Competition  is a crucial part of the process in the mastery of any chosen art.  it's a demonstration by the practitioner, that his path, his way in the journey of that mastery is either correct, or in need of further refinement.  In the case of arms, training classes are necessary, their purpose is to safely suggest the way, through the shared experience of a master, they indicate right direction in technique and tactics, encourages discipline and a process to practice.  But in the end you must take what you see, what you hear, what you read and what you experience and turn it into your own way.  It is ultimately your endeavor.  To stand in the arena before others and demonstrate your way, reveals to all and mainly your self whether you put your faith in the truth or just a facade of smoke! and to deny yourself the opportunity to experience such an aspect of the journey is a mistake.
