Why it is Kapap unique?

Today Kapap is a dynamic and developing and fast growing system where we see the student as the centre of our focus. Many styles like the traditional have their barriers set with rules and regulations sometimes adapting many unnecessary typologies and doctrines which are hard or to complicate to follow, sometimes too demanding for the student.

Other styles that preach about one way, or a single man that is on the top of the system, they are leaving the most important factor out of the equation - The student.

We have witnessed many fancy looking titles and self proclaimed masters that reinvented themselves with illusions and so-called “scientific” researches to back their theory. Problem is that NO ONE ASKS QUESTIONS any more and they all fall into the sheep category that follows one Sheppard. At Kapap we encourage the student to ask all the possible questions he might have from the first moment he comes into the class.

It is our way to do things and to show that every question has a logical answer, it might not be the same answer for everyone in the class, but this is how we start to explore and understand what works and what doesn’t in reality with the bottom line which is - Kapap adapts only what works.

The main feature you encounter when you come to learn Kapap is that we are basing our practices on principles and not techniques like all the rest of the systems. We believe that the techniques are endless and you can invent them yourself once you understand the principles you need to follow.

How would you expect to remember lets say technique number 58 out of your manual book if the attacker is random? Or better yet he didn’t read your book of defences and he doesn’t know how to really attack you to make your technique work against him. But if you will follow few simple principles that are also logical (when you have common sense) you will see that there is nothing to it and you don’t even need a manual book.
