KIMUGAN OFFICIAL WEBSITE INFORMATION PART 2
ABOUT THE FOUNDER & VARIOUS CONSIDERATIONS
THE FOUNDER OF THE KIMUGAN
Prof. Gabriel Gagliardini developed the original idea of the Kimugan so that it can fulfill a deep social function, since it is not only a matter of giving people the possibility to defend themselves physically but also to offer people a new element that helps to improve Coexistence and increase respect for the environment.
This Art has been founded principally to allow decent people their inner development, having greater and better elements that allow to remove from their lives all that is bad and at the same time foster all that is beneficial for the individual, his environment and all in general.
Over the years, the creator of the Kimugan understood that it was a discipline that exceeded his expectations, since this Martial School was initially thought as a Personal Defense System and, over the years, the Kimugan ended up being the only Martial Art that combines the following characteristics: its origin is totally genuine, the techniques are simple, it is effective without being aggressive, it houses a very high philosophical support, its idiosyncrasy is absolutely American and it has been developed for the urban environment, this implies that the following have been taken into account: (1) updating the use of weapons, (2) mental strengthening to avoid manipulation, (3) the study of the essential aspects of neuro-linguistics to anticipate the wiles of the attacker, 4) work on the levels of aggressiveness caused by current drug use, 5) the use of elements of the different schools of psychology in order to improve the perception of reality, (6) consideration of existing legal regulations, (7) esoteric knowledge about the laws of the universe, (8) the proper way to defend against psychopathic aggressors, 9) personal development oriented to the spiritual evolution of the student, to help him or her overcome his fears and 10) the education of students to be healthy, free from the “technological jail" of our times (empty matrix alienating minds), without rejecting the new digital tools, which must be used intelligently, and not as automatons, both for our benefit and that of other beings.
Without prejudice to any other similar activity, it is correct to affirm that the Kimugan is the only Martial Art that fulfills all these requirements, and therefore is constituted as a: Supreme Art (superior in its class, last and more important).
Often as one class would he would quickly rush to attend another, performing various daily workouts. He also attended various courses of self-defense, survival camps, seminars and various techniques of combat training field reconnaissance, strategy and tactical deployment.
During his first 25 years in the martial arts practiced: karate, fullcontact, kickboxing, ninjutsu, aikijitsu, muaythai, boxing, kobudo, judo, taichichuan, iaido, jiujitsu, kungfu, kenjutsu, aikido. chikung, qigong and neigong.
VARIOUS CONSIDERATIONS
Basic Study Plan
The Kimugan has a systematic model that has been developed with the intention of teaching the correct instructions to the students. The Curriculum design of Kimugan enables standardization of the learning process of theoretical and practical contents given by the various Study Centers.
Training of future instructors is included in the development of the Study Plan, it is intended that the student acquires responsibility, because they can become a professional instructor as well.
The notion of Study Plan transcends the Educational Program, because the Program involves only a list of the contents that should be taught; The Study Plan is also responsible for determining how the instruction will explain why the content has been selected, and how the Kimugan methodological and axiological factor (values) play a decisive role.
As for the technical content and its relationship with gradations, with graduations, here is a brief outlook on the first belts/degrees (kyu), which are most common:
- Yellow: (7th Kyu), basic earth element and other issues*.

two elements combining and other issues*.

three elements combining and other issues*.
- Violet: (2nd Kyu), basic fire element and other issues *.
four elements combining and other issues*.

The Three Levels
Gradually the complexity of these increases, with the passing of time
is to understand the movement block, through: body art, breathing
management, as well as physical and biodynamic use. With enough time,
training and development in the art, the student may be able to direct
the ki through the use of mental image.
Dress
At outdoor trainings, the students may assist with a training uniform or in gym clothes. Unless the instructor in charge insists they can choose for one of these options and/or by request from their students for a valid reason.
