I met Rory in 2003 and he had some interesting ideas about martial arts.
If you have a few minutes, here's a recent interview with him that's worth a look.

Kung Fu is good for you.
Rory is pretty cool. Nice guy that doesn't flip out if you disagree with him.
But why do karate school owners feel that they have to introduce themselves as "sensei" your name here?
I quit after getting my first black belt because the school I was a part of was in the process of lowering their standards A painfully honest KC Elbows
The crap that many schools do is not the crap I was taught or train in or teach.
Dam nit... it made sense when it was running through my head.

Find the safety flaw in the training. Rory Miller.
He has some great perspective, I've read some of his shorter writings on violence and self defense...fascinating stuff. I think he used to be a correctional officer and wrote about the sudden and unpredictability of being attacked. His most recent book 'Meditations on Violence' is on my wish list.

I recently read "Meditation on Violence." Overall I'd say its a pretty good book. Mr. Miller's ideas are very solid. Anyone who takes martial arts, but has not had real life experience would do well to read it.
in for later when im not browsing from my phone and can watch that vid.
