Martial arts

In a martial arts class, there is usually a syllabus and a grading structure in place. Students are led through the curriculum, accumulating insights and skills as they progress.

Periodically, their knowledge, competence and understanding is tested.


As they climb up the syllabus, more information is revealed and the student makes connections and associations without the need for as much explicit tuition.


The material feels more significant and the student eventually begins to glimpse the true nature of the art. They cultivate a comprehension that no new starter could share.
