  1. Get other people working with you who have experience in martial arts disciplines in which you have little or no experience.

    Developing a concept requires multiple inputs and brainstorming. If only one person is working on it, your ideas will have a tendency to stagnate.


  2. thats quite a good idea indeed.

    i've seen so many styles with so much to offer but then they have these moves or methods which seem so pointless to me.

    my advice would be to watch alot of tv or read alot of books which have the different moves from each fighting style. look at them figure out the best stance, the best guard, the best strikes, the best combinations etc etc.

    pick and choose and then hit the training gyms and try to use them. trail and error you'll figure out what works and what doesn't

    also research alot on the styles which are not single minded. something like muay thai is only strikes but pradal serey and sanda have throws too.

    look at sambo and ufc and other mixed fighting styles and see how they work.

    goodluck

    let me know how it goes


  3. try getting other people with experience involved you can learn from each other and teach others

  4. You would have to line up with all the other eclectic mixed martial arts out there.  Such as Bruce Tegner's JUKADO, Bruce Lee's JEET KUNE DO; San Yama Bushi Jiu Jitsu; Ketsugo; Wado-Ryu Karate (Shotokan & Aikido); American Jiu-Jitsu (Hakko Ryu & Judo); and a dozen other mixed styles being invented on a monthly basis.

    Trouble is, there is only a finite amount of techniques out there.  How many variations of a wrist lock are there without reinventing a wristlock from Aikido or Hakko ryu jiu jitsu or dozens of other styles of Japanese Jiu jitsu or Chinese Chin Na?  You run the risk of reinventing the same martial art developed ten or a hundred years ago.
