What are training sessions like?
Typically, training sessions are performed using various drills and exercises to encourage the practitioners to move spontaneously and naturally to solve difficult survival situations. Students learn through a process of good motion (surviving) and less than good motion (not surviving). Doing things incorrectly is an important part of the learning process. Repeating a motion long enough with negative results eventually teaches the body what NOT to do. Hence the training drills used are a process to teach the body how to move, and how not to move. Over time, this training method re-educates the body at a reflexive/kinesthetic level, allowing the practitioner to respond to attacks in real time with little or no conscious thought.
