FLAMING WATERDROPS

Some days ago, I had a conversation with a martial arts expert about individual fighting. After my first two sentences, he said, “Aha, then it’s similar to MMA, isn’t it?” “Yes, in some respects it is,” I replied, “but in many essential ways, it definitely is not.” In columns, I listed their attributes. To make the picture even clearer, I began with the well-known concept of freestyle. None of these are classical styles. I highlighted the similarities to InFi in green, and the differences in pink. Each line represents the same aspect across all columns. In summary, we might call MMA a sport version of InFi—or restricted individual fighting . But we must not refer to InFi as free MMA in general, because the restrictions in MMA are not merely technical. The entire mindset is different. The most essential discrepancies lie in the third, fourth, and fifth lines above—which are not about freedom or limitation at all. Of course, every MMA fighter has their own InFi outside of competiti...

Thank you very much for reading this. This blog is just the beginning. My intention is to raise awareness in you about your InFi —your Individual Finesse or Fighting,  personal style. I'm confident you understand what I want people to realize. Why is InFi such an important concept to talk about and spread? There are two main reasons: 1. Awareness. I want to prevent people from feeling inadequate simply because they struggle to master certain skills that may not be suited to them. For example, an older woman may not be able to earn a black belt in a traditional system with full integrity—not because she lacks dedication, but because the system wasn't built for her. (Of course, in a corrupt commercial world, anyone can buy certificates and black belts—but that's not the point.) 2. The upcoming Percomboo (PCB). The second reason is the introduction of PCB —a program and technology designed to help anyone improve and develop their most natural , style. PCB is rooted in ...

Stretch Beyond the Mat: Why Flexibility Is a Life Skill Most people think of stretching as just part of a workout routine—a way to warm up or cool down. But for me, stretching is something deeper. It's not just about physical health. It's a daily reminder of how I want to live: adaptable, open, and resilient. A Daily Habit That Grounds Me Stretching is a daily habit of mine. Each day, I practice specific exercises to help me become and remain more flexible. It’s not about mastering advanced yoga poses or achieving some ideal physical state. It’s about showing up for myself with consistency and intention. Flexibility, I believe, is a key element of successful living. Without it, you can't truly adapt to different situations—physically or mentally. The Flexibility Mindset A lack of flexibility can leave you vulnerable. Others may hurt you, break you, or even destroy you—whether that’s through physical injury, emotional turmoil, or sudden life changes. When you're ri...

The original INFI logo INFI is a name.  Behind this name is your skill.  No matter who you are and what you have learnt. INFI is your skill. The INFI Method The INFI Method is the empty-hand branch of SFS and its most unique part. INFI stands for  Individual Fighting —a way to develop your own natural style rather than copy someone else’s. Unlike traditional martial arts, where everyone must move the same, INFI focuses on the individual. Your body type, reflexes, mindset, and strengths shape your path. The method provides guidance and structured challenges, but the solutions are yours. In practice, this means no fixed forms or ideal techniques. INFI demonstrations never aim for visual uniformity—they reveal how effectively someone can solve a situation in real time. The measure of progress is not appearance, but efficiency. The trainer’s role is not to be a model to imitate but a guide, like a road sign or a runway light. They help you find your own way. Progress...
