My name is David Sean Bunch - also called "Sensei Buddha."
I have been training in the martial arts for more than twenty years.
I was awarded a 4th degree black belt in an eclectic form of Jujutsu, and a Certified Grip Master Instructor with Griffin Martial Training. I am also formulating my own method of self protection called BuddhaStrike Combatives. I co-authored a book called Martial Talk With Sensei Buddha and am currently producing a DVD called Quick and Dirty Self-Defense.
Other than being a martial arts instructor, I have been a security specialist providing executive protection for several celebrities.
I've trained in several martial arts. I enjoyed my training and respect all of the sytems that I studied. However, the eclectic form of Jujutsu that I train in and teach takes the individual into account. The techniques taught are customized to the practitioner (e.g. body-type, physical abilities, etc.) - not the other way around. This is due to the fact that the focus is on understanding physical concepts (e.g. levers and centrifugal force). When you understand physical principles, the techniques will come.
This is something that can be practiced for the rest of your life as it is not dependent on speed and strength. Also, we have special training drills that help develop our sensitivity and to defend ourselves against multiple opponents simultaneously.
Also, I highly recommend Filipino knife and stick fighting systems as they are excellent combat art as it teaches students how to properly use and defend against bladed weapons.
Let me be clear about something. Filipino knife and stick fighting practioners are law-abiding citizens and do not advocate slicing people up. However, in today's world - especially if you're into executive protection and/or security, you'd better know how to use and defend against bladed weapons.
Stick and knife work are part of the BuddhaStrike Combatives system. CLICK HERE to learn more about my ideas on using the stick and knife and the sword and knife.
I appreciate tradition, so I was attracted to look into Goju Karate. Goju Karate is unique among most other systems of Karate because it has a lot of circular movements, and uses "hard" (i.e. linear - go in Japanese) as well as "soft" (i.e. circular - ju in Japanese).
As a security specialist, I have to quell situations as quickly and as discretely as possible. A lot of violent confrontations can be avoided if you remain aware of your surroundings and check your ego. By checking your ego, I mean that you should swallow your pride and walk away when possible. Acting level-headed and calm, also causes your attacker to drop his or her guard and allow you a better opportunity to launch a preemptive strike - mentally or physically.
