"The frustrating part is explaining how flawless the system is."

"Last month I had the honor of hosting Guided Chaos' first seminar in Salem, OR, and it was unbelievable. I say this because if I was not already familiar with the system, and heard about a seminar that improved the participants moving and hitting so drastically that after two days, they were literally unrecognizable; I wouldn't believe it. I have been training people in self defense for over twenty years, and I have never witnessed anything like this. Al Ridenhour is a 10+. His articulation and demonstration of the system practically made it impossible not to understand. Not only have my guys not stopped talking about the training, but they have a whole new level of desire to work on the drills and get better.   The only frustrating part is explaining, in my opinion, how flawless the system is. I remember shortly after the seminar, I was reflecting on the training with my wife, who is also a martial artist, and summed it up by saying, "If God ever needed a martial art, then Guided Chaos would be His only choice."

THE GREAT MYTH OF "GROUND-GRAPPLING SUPREMACY"      IN THE MODERN COMBATIVES FIELD      (Exploding the Myth of "Contest As Combat in the Martial Arts)         ©Copyright 2010 by Bradley J. Steiner

IT is the purpose of this Monograph to discuss and explain why the recently popularized sport of “competitive jiu-jitsu” (originally brought to this country by the prestigious Gracie family) is not, despite widespread rhetoric and belief to the contrary, any sort of “ultimate” or “supremely effective” form of self-protection or hand-to-hand combat. We will readily acknowledge that this work is one of personal opinion, and thus those who disagree with or who are made uncomfortable by its presentation and contents (however true, verifiable, and objectively correct that portion may be that verifies our personal opinion) should feel perfectly free — as doubtless they will — to dismiss these words as the viewpoint of someone who just doesn’t “get it”. Believe what you will. We shall list the numerous reasons why not only “groundgrappling” but the entire (and relatively new) so-called “anything goes” type combative sporting events do not correlate even slightly with that which is required for success in actual close combat and for serious self-defense against determined, dangerous enemies in hand-to-hand battle.    Why Do We Bother With This Project At All? SOME might ask why, if we are so earnestly involved in the teaching of close combat and self-defense (as we are), and if we already have a proven and now internationally respected and practical System that works (and we do), we are willing to take the time and expend the effort to present this Monograph which addresses a subject about and with which we remain personally uninvolved, and about and with which we intend to remain personally uninvolved. Why do it? The answer is that we wish to do whatever we can to further that which we honestly and in good faith believe to be the truth about close combat and self- defense, and this necessarily must from time to time entail dispelling that which is in our opinion myth rather than fact. Such helps to clarify the entire spectrum of subjects relating to this field of endeavor. We do not present this Monograph for the purpose of attacking either individuals or any particular martial arts venue that individuals might wish to participate in. We believe that so long as consenting adults only are involved, no activity ought to be subject to censure, or be prohibited. Let all who enjoy the UFC, MMA, Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, and whatever other activity in the martial arts that includes that with which we personally disagree constitutes combat preparation, go on enjoying and participating in their activity.  We respect their right to do as they please, and we have not the slightest quarrel with them.
