"Efficiency is doing things right;
​effectiveness is doing the right things"

The above quote is true in so many respects that it applies across all aspects of our lives, none more so than the combative arts. Wushu Yanjiu (Martial Arts Research) is no exception, in fact it embraces the concept of efficient and effectiveness as part of its core principles. Each and every technique taught has been tried and tested both in training and in practical application in the real world. 

Taking the many and varied three and a half thousand techniques from more than 170 different martial arts and working with those until the most effective and efficient remain is something that Bruce Lee epitomised and emphasised. 

​The quote below, expressed more efficiently is "Take what is good, and discard the rest, make it yours."  And that is what Wushu Yanjiu does.

"Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own."
​– Bruce Lee
