Anatomy & Science

For years, I taught Kyusho and Tuite using traditional martial arts wisdom—kata, pressure points, energy flows, joint angles. It all worked… but something always felt like it was missing. Sometimes techniques landed too well or not at all. Sometimes control required effort, other times it felt effortless. I chalked it up to “refinement” or “intent,” but the truth is, I didn’t fully understand the hidden layer behind it all. Then I discovered fascia. And everything changed.
