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 ...

non-traditional kick Creating our individual style is a natural process. Everyone develops their style automatically. This statement is general but can be applied to any specific field—martial arts, combat sports, and self-defence are no exceptions. People who practice fighting are constantly creating their own fighting styles. They are, consciously or unconsciously, the creators of their unique approach to combat. Whatever one is learning, only a part of it will truly be absorbed. Another part will be automatically rejected by the self. Moreover, every absorbed element is filtered through a person’s individuality. The evolving individual fighting style becomes distinct from the traditionally practiced style. In other words, by practicing conventional techniques, one is also developing an invisible, personal fighting style—what we can call the InFi style. For example, someone studying Wing Chun kung fu or Kyokushinkai karate is guided by teachers and improved within the framework of tr...

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...
