There are no
forms, kata, or sport tournament techniques, just straight up dirty &
practical street survival martial arts. The practitioner is first taught
basic theories, footwork, camming, and striking weapons(Tools) of the body.
They next learn to blend these with natural reactive “Primary Moves” &
entries against all angles of attack, followed with multiple strikes, levers
& combinations, that flow into finishing moves of temporary detainments or
total destruction.
The student then discovers different methods of blending these elements,
being able to counterattack with aggressive, naturally reactive moves, based
on the opponents attacks and reactions. Instead of being taught memorized
set pattern techniques, the practitioner learns to read weaknesses &
manipulate human biomechanics, allowing the practitioner to create
“techniques” instinctively.
Advanced students are introduced to knife fighting, weapons use & defenses,
basic Mook Jong(Wooden Dummy) and Iron Palm conditioning. The goal of the
Hurricane practitioner, is to destroy or detain an attacker within the first
few seconds of contact, utilizing maximum impact with minimal effort.
All fighting styles have something to offer, and all have their strengths
and weaknesses, and those strengths and weaknesses are dependent on the
individual, not the style.
