All was right with my world until a friend drew my attention to the WT system in summer 1986.
Shortly afterwards I paid a visit to a WT school, and during that first visit I had plenty of opportunity to compare my techniques with WT.
Only then did I realise that everything I had previously learned for sporting competition was unusable in a real fight. This encounter really depressed me. I thought I was a good fighter, but the soft, flowing WT movements gave me no chance. My eyes were opened for me by a few words and physical proof. I immediately knew that this was what I had long been looking for. I saw reality, and no longer wanted to kid myself.
I advise anybody interested in the martial arts to practice WT if he is wise.
