[While is true that form the first grade of black belt the students
can access nine other levels, it is necessary to clarify that: this
levels are available exclusively to those acting as instructors. They
teach and transmit what they learned is mandatory for all who wish to
advance the Kimugan character, because teaching not only transmits to
others what they have learned, but is the knowledge itself that is
strengthened, the technical details are polished to see the mistakes
reflected in students and a great contribution to society made by
spreading a nonviolent martial art and self-improvement as is the
Kimugan.]
[With the approved greenbelt, students over 13 years old are entitled
to apply the test monitor instructor to teach on their own. (In these
cases the student is under the direct supervision and guidance of an
advanced until they pass the first examination of black belt
instructor.)]
[It should be clarified that to render the first degree of black belt
the student must have reached the age of 16, with exceptions.]
Does the belt mean anything?
The truth is, the most important thing is learning. With years of
training and with all the knowledge and wisdom one may have however,
when the belt reflects the years of training of a student, that is when
it becomes an important symbol. It is physical proof of the years of
effort one has put in and allows the other students to see that.
The belt is also a element that reaffirms (psychologically) of the
learning of one, that not only shows what they have accomplished but
that they carry a greater responsibility with it. Therefore, one must
understand the symbolic value of the belt.

certificates, vouchers and/or diplomas), and are immediately registered

About the associations, federations
and confederations
In the Kimugan the associations, federations and confederations (or
suchlike) do not play any important role, because Kimugan is a Martial
Art and a complete Self-Defense System that fulfills a social function
from education, security, sport, art and culture, which translates into
a School that diffuses a noble philosophy of life, and is in the
antipodes of entertainment, games, tournaments, shows and sports
competitions that are totally contrary to the original martial arts.
The founder of Kimugan (Doshu Prof. Gabriel Gagliardini) has
indicated from the beginning, follow the path to self-improvement
through the practice of Kimugan, and has always had a clear and
non-negotiable position on the non-competitive aspect of Kimugan, to
avoid malice and kept free of the constraints generated by sports
regulations. The Kimugan is effective, and does not even has few limits
as vale-tudo competitions.
It is true that a large part of martial arts schools have modified
their original art, and decided to devote himself to sports competition
through its participation in tournaments, championships and
international matches. For all that may be necessary to rely on
associations, federations and confederations.
Every serious student should reflect on the origin of every genuine
martial art: defend against one or more assailants than larger than
one's self, and also against attackers who carry some kind of weapon.
The Kimugan fits this concept and considers that this very basic
objective can not become negotiable.
The reality shows that when a martial art develops an area of sports
competition is inevitably limiting its technical arsenal and gradually
corrupts the spirit of art, because everything becomes ambiguous, and in
the minds of students develops the pernicious idea to surpass others in
a game of superficiality that puts him outside the limits of the
real-world situations, slowing their personal progress and leading him
astray from the path of the warrior...
"While ordinary me
entertain with their games,
the
inside warriors
deepens their vital training."
Doshu Gabriel Gagliardini
Autohorized instructors
If in doubt, contact the Headquarters of Kimugan and ask about
credibility of the instructor in question, addressing the KAD (Kimugan
Atama Dojo), as this is the only way to ensure the legitimacy of the
instructor and the content taught by him.
Who are authorized?
Each of the applications submitted by the various instructors to
enable their dojos of Kimugan are evaluated and granted (or not) by the
Headquarter. Do not be fooled by assumed records or diplomas that may be
fake copies or counterfeited.
Avoid falling into the trap of diplomas, written authorizations or
photographs, as all this may be false; the only reliable way to check is
to make the relevant consultation, contact by sending an e-mail to:

SEVERAL COMMENTS
- David, age: 19.
I played soccer, basketball, and handball for many years and won several
competitions, which gave me a lot of self-confidence. Until, when I was
18, a couple of big guys got me leaving a party. I couldn't move, and I
was paralyzed for a couple seconds, somehow I got out and started
running for my life. I ran and did not stop until I got home. When I
looked back they were more than twenty blocks away. I felt as if I was
dying because I had no air left in me, I felt I was dying. They ended up
beating and robbing my friend, while he was on the ground they kicked
him and told him they were doing it because he was blonde. I'm now
learning Kimugan, and me work with all types of real situations. The
most important thing is that now I now know that it is not to win, but
to live.
- Lucas, age: 32.
It took me a lot to start. I'm very pacifist by nature, which is an
obstacle for me, and I always felt rejected by martial arts and boxing.
But then I found Kimugan, which is unlike anything else I have known,
and I decided to give it a chance. In just the first month of training I
have learned that I have the right to defend myself, and not just for
myself, but to defend my family as well. In addition, I get excellent
physical training, which helped me loose extra weight that had always
bothered me.
- Mia, age: 26.
I was a well-known martial art teacher, and at first I rejected the idea
of Kimugan and I don't know why. Maybe because it was something new...
plus I did not want to start from scratch. The first time I saw one of
the videos online... I liked it so much, but I envied it and decide to
forget it. In the end I decided to start and I was very interested of
what I observed: simple movements, clear actions, no violence... and
from that moment I decided to sign-up. Everything got better for me that
day! Thank you!!!
- Hugo, age: 37.
The training is great. What I like the most is that you don't train to
compete and win a trophy or money, but for something much more
important: to improve and eliminate your weaknesses. I recommend that
you train hard!
- Marianela, age: 21.
For me the best of this school is that the classes are always different
and vary. There are no dense routines; I'm someone who gets bored
easily, but not here. In each class you see new things, like: grips,
leverage, disarmament, etc. It is an excellent activity for all ages.
- Eric, age: 68.
The first thing that occurs to me since I have started Kimugan is that I
am much better. That is awesome!, I lost weight and feel like a 10.
Also, it is nice to be able to be in the same class with my grandson, so
I can look forward to each training.
- Sarah, age: 19.
I started this activity out of curiosity, and gradually I was getting
deeper and deeper into it. I now feel super safe where ever I go. I love
Kimugan!!!, and I enjoy each class. My goal is to become an instructor.
- Jonathan, age: 24.
Kimugan is very good for the mind. To all of those who are going
to enroll themselves, I have a recommendation: be persistent!
Perseverance is essential in Kimugan. Something that I learned during my
first year of Kimugan is: the results of Kimugan are in everyday life.
Gradually, it clears the mind.
- Christian, age: 38.
I was in the military for nearly a decade, in the past couple of years
going to the gym every once. Now I know about Kimugan, it is very
interesting, mainly of what you learn about self-discipline. Also, I was
very interested in weapon handling. But I don't want to forget something
that is very important, what I like the most about the trainings is that
I learn non-violent techniques that are totally effective.
- Brian, age: 45.
I boxed when I was a kid, and I sign-up to see what it is like. It is
not better or worse, but there are completely different things, I have
learned: grips, locks, leverge, weapon use, kicks, etc. It is a great
activity, I have regained flexibility and I sleep better. I would like
to become an instructor before age 50.
- Mary, age: 18.
From practice, I assure you that the Kimugan is 100% real, techniques
are very good and simple, for example: I will do a certain lever to a
man over 200 pounds, and he can not move if I will not allow it. It is
truly amazing! I invite all those who read my comment to check for
themselves about what I have said, if I could (with so little
coordination) anyone can !! If you have any questions look first YouTube
and Vimeo videos.
We should also ask ourselves:
how to choose a martial art?
We invite you to follow these seven steps:
1. First of all determine your ultimate objective. What is your goal?
a) martial skill as a primary concern, with health and fitness.
b) Health and fitness first, with martial training as a secondary
benefit.
c) Being part of a group that sympathizes with or is a supporter of some
alien and remote tradition or culture.
d) Win trophies and recognition participating in competitive events.
e) Let out the nervousness caused by their own frustrations and failures
hitting and injuring others.
2. Take into account your current physical abilities. If you are
older or are not very aerobatic looking for something simple and
effective, as close combat martial arts that emphasize technique and
lever therefore are more useful as you advance. If you're not a giant,
you should evaluate an art that is mainly based on technique and not
rely on a particular height or weight to succeed.
3. Set aside a significant amount of time each week to devote to your
training. Most arts have exercises or ways you can practice at home to
keep everything fresh in your mind; if you only practice in class, your
progress will probably be minimal. The class is mainly for learning. It
is essential to train at home, unless you attend the dojo (training
place) every day.
4. Set a budget. Some arts require a significant investment. You must
be willing to pay your monthly payment on the agreed day or before
paying late is a serious lack of respect. You also have to have an extra
amount of money to buy workout clothes (which is very accessible) and to
pay tuition, examination certificates and corresponding expenses. It
makes no sense to be interested in something which the cost you can not
or do not want to pay.
5. Seriously consider the effectiveness of the martial art that you
are choosing.
Is it a clearly effective martial art with its technical and
philosophical aspect?, is it an activity based on the current reality?,
does it feed off of tournaments and superficial elements?, is it a
cluster of rituals and mythical issues?, or is simply a show of
acrobatics and rotations?
Look for general information on the Internet, and then look at as many
videos as possible from the school that has caught your attention. After
that request a personal interview with a representative of that
discipline.
6. Check the history of the instructor. How long he or she has
studied? Does the teacher have some teaching experience, or simply a
suitable martial artist? (Like the great soccer players can be bad
coaches, famous martial artists are not necessarily great instructors).
Does he or she have a certificate to enable him or her for teaching or
at least passed a minimum amount of teaching materials or by a teacher
in any branch of education? Does he or she train alongside their
students or only give directions? Does he or she show the effectiveness
of each class by what it teaches, or attacks must conform to a set of
guidelines so that artificial techniques can be applied... And is it
something fundamental: 100% dedicated to teaching his or her martial art
or lives or works in another activity and gives some classes a week (as
if it were a hobby)?
7. Think of all the evaluated and determine whether the chosen
discipline will bring you a personal improvement and if somehow make
society a better place. If you are looking for an activity that is: 0%
tradition and 100% efficiency, suitable for today's urban environment,
not aggressive, seeking personal development through self-control and
self-discipline (without malice or vain competitive ambitions) and that
has been developed to neutralize the aggressor in all kinds of
situations... you already know what you should learn, stop doubting and
do it!
