How to Tell if a Technique is Effective - 3 Things (And How to Make it Work for YOU!)

To help you navigate the abundance of information available in the martial arts (online, seminars, classes, etc.), here are 3 simple criteria you should always look for when deciding which techniques you want to learn and practice.

Unfortunately, you can waste a lot of time practicing the wrong thing...

But that's only half the equation. You also need to know specific practice methods to then make the techniques work for YOU.

Hope you enjoy!
