Isn't that exactly what American Kenpo all about? It't not the techniques themselves but the theories/concepts/lessons built in that make them so valuable?

Perhaps...but the techniques need to be trained in a functional manner that allows them to work faaaar more reliably,because then and ONLY then are there theories/concepts/lessons of true value and worth to be had.If not trained functionally? The only thoeries/concepts/lessons built into the techs are:"this crapola doesn't work; why is this jerk teaching me self-defense that doesn't work vs resistance and is charging me alotta money to learn this trash? I'm done with MA or I'm going to that MMA gym cuz it works" or something like:"this crap doesn't work! fix it!" You'll NEVER get a "YAAAY I'M PAYING LOTSA MONEY FOR CRAPTASTICNESS!" response.
