WHAT IS DESCOMBATE?
Many people had already heard or read the phrase in Sun Tzu's book that speaks about “achieve one hundred victories in one hundred battles”. However, is too hard, for who conquered the one hundred victories in one hundred battles, to receive the merit for its excellence. To achieve that feat, in the Chinese martial perspective, will to be necessary a discreet involvement that can guarantee the success before the begin of explicit conflict. Therefore, anyone who had won all battles not necessarily will receive its merits, because maybe don’t had fought any explicit battle. Achieve the victory in all battles, in that sense, is a mediocre feat when the victories is viewed by other person, because who was victorious in all battles maybe don't fought at least one explicit battle.

As a system, it develops skills that can be used to any goal by any person. In Descombat blog we will approach themes involving combat and fight by the perspective of "martial intelligence", that is, the name that we consider the best translation into English of "Kung Fu".
Later, the patriarch of my lineage, Moy Yat (梅逸), had founded the "Moy Yat Ving Tsun Denomination", or "Moy Yat Ving Tsun Martial Intteligence Inc.", in an intent to preserve and spread the traditional thinking (Classical Chinese Thought) behind the Wing Chun in western culture.
Pensamento Clássico Chinês:
To understand both the idea of the system and Kung Fu, the reader will be immersed in the logic of Classical Chinese Thought.
"The Classical Chinese Thought had a big influence of sages and scholars that lived about 2500 years ago in the Combatant States Period, in the phase of pre-unification of China.

More important than inflicting, is perceive the other. More imperative than fight, is identifying the potential of situation that will allow the victory before the fight, exploring signals normally not perceived, but fundamentals to the configuration of a future or a tendency, that can agree one anticipation of events.
