Is Piper a Martial Art like Karate or Kung Fu?
Piper is very closely linked to its roots as a method of violence, as happens today in our country. It is a study of the methods and attitudes of violence as learned from violent people and incidents. It is how people assault, hurt, maim, rob and kill using knives and improvised weapons. We view it as more of a method of combat and applied violent intent – learned from gang, prison and street violence. Within the context of a violent encounter where one might be killed or hurt badly, the aim is less to fight than to win.
