Many times when we demonstrate techniques people will say that it looks like we don’t do anything and the attacker just falls. If they have studied another martial art they often say our training isn’t real because we don’t move fast enough. I have been dealing with these questions for almost twenty years as an instructor. A lot of people just don’t have the eyes to see this art.

Instead of attempting to explain I am going to defer to An-shu Hayes. His post this week is about this exact subject. Please take the time to read his answer here. You won’t be disappointed.
