Well i do MT and it changes with the times, although as yet it has not incorporated any ground fighting.
Some systems like Shotokan Karate dont change.
I did shotokan Karate for a couple of years and they kept going on about how it is the same original system.
Now im sure thats not quite true. But the point is the mind set of the style. It tries to remain the same where as others try to adapt. Maybe evolution of the system has watered it down.
My question to you all is do you think there is any real benefit to a system being "static" and not evolving?
Can the system remain useful if it never changes?
Please try and keep it non style specific, just arguments for or against evolving or static.
