As far as the traditional arts go, isn't is just the way they train that is ineffective?? I mean, if I go to a poor muay thai class, and they train me to do this when he does that and this when he does this, isn't that the same thing? A kick is just a kick and a punch is just a punch.

I think that karate, kung fu etc are all very effective, but been watered down and packaged to be taught to the masses. In their true form, I believe they are exactly what the were created as. Combat arts, formed for use in conflict.
