As we have mentioned, there are many types of bodily conditioning (for hands, abdominal, legs, etc.) and to each of them corresponds more and more effectiveness tests:
- Breaking (eg. of bricks)
- Flexion (eg. splitting)
- Resistance (eg. stick strokes)
- Spatial intelligence (eg. handling two flying objects simultaneously)
- Balance (eg. running fight movements with a bowl of water in our hand)
- Accuracy (eg. dynamically targeting very small targets only with one finger)
- ...

After acquiring a good ability rotating circularly our rope on the cube faces (see "Stance and basic rotations of the rope"), we can quickly switch to the most important and effective "8" rotations (describing in the air the symbol of the infinite).
These evolutions are a key component of fighting with the rope (and of many other flexible weapons), if we fail to handle these movements perfectly, we will be totally unable to advance in our martial growth (in particular, in the absence of soli...

While in a sports combat we have more and more occasions of collecting a large amount of information about our opponents, on the street, time is a luxury that we can not afford.
For the sake of intellectual honesty, the first thing to admit is that there is no reliable way to recognize at 100% (in a handful of seconds) the danger level of an opponent (experience, technical preparation, athletic abilities, attitude to struggle, determination, speed, etc.).
There is an endless number of va...

Reconnecting us with the self-defense discussion and the use of martial arts (see the article "The 6DKF's diagram about the use of violence") we want to expose an easy to remember / employ method to be applied in all cases of aggression.
After several experiences (direct / indirect), studies and comparisons with other methodologies, we have developed the S.A.F.E. method, a simple acronym to memorize which reminds us, in every situation, what to do and in what order.
In the specific, S.A.F....

After the first spontaneous approach with the rope (referred to in the article "Learn to use basic weapons") we pass on the basic exercises.
The elastic rope is one of the founding elements of the 6DKF, it is used at the same time as:
- A body motion educational instrument
- A weapon itself (at a more advanced level)
- A tool to learn more complex flexible weapons
The first things to learn are the simple rotations; let's start from the stance:
- Let's assume the same guard as the s...

We have already pointed out the best way to learn a technique (fight, strategy, etc.) in the article "The best way to study technique: 10 tips", now we want to go forward and propose a practical and functional scheme for acquiring theoretical knowledge and transform it into practice.
Before starting:
- In principle this methodology is valid for (almost) any kind of martial concept
- It is understood that the technique we want to learn has been consistently evaluated as real, practicable w...

The only effective way to hide ourselves is (as the Ninjutsu teaches us) to get in harmony with nature, with the surrounding environment, abandoning our human form and becoming "nothing" (nothing of relevant).
We do not necessarily have to do not be seen, heard (etc.), we must rather abandon the times and spaces that sensitively and logically can identify our essence as an object of attention.
In the particular case of learning to hide in the shadows, we must first understand what uniquely...

When we are at close distance and we are in the middle of a quarrel that is likely to degenerate into a clash, managing our safety becomes very difficult (especially if we are not skilled fighters).
We must at the same time:
- Avoid being the first to attack (both for ethical and legal reasons)
- Avoid that who is in front of us feels obliged to attack
- Avoid, on the other side, to appear frightened
- Prepare defense and counterattack without appearing aggressive
Unfortunately, sinc...

After seeing how to handle with the mental and physical limitations typical of every self-defense situation, we continue with the condition in which we are absolutely less willing to fight: the one in which we are injured or ill.
Examples:
- We've been hit hard during an earlier phase of the clash
- We have fallen or something has fallen on us
- We have been attacked during a period of illness or injury
- ...
By foretold that in these extreme conditions, chances of prevailing deccrea...

In 6DKF, physical conditioning has the goal to:
- Be able to perform the most advanced techniques
- Be able to perform the basic techniques more effectively
- Better resist to opponent's attacks (twists, impacts, etc.)
- Achieve higher performance (power, speed, target reach, etc.)
- Achieve physical well-being and in no case a state of constant suffering
- ...
The types of conditioning that we will see are studied to:
- Increase strength
- Increase body resistance to damages
- I...
