The devil is in the details

Since I started taking classes at MAMA I noticed the key is to pay attention to the intricacies of the technique each art provides. It is easy to get the general idea, but to become proficient requires more than just a time commitment. It requires you to really pay attention and break each technique down and build it from the base up.  Dedication and discipline are crucial to this process. Also I have learned humility is necessary to learning at a deep level. Letting go of your self image and really applying the lesson is the only way to get from one level to the next.
