Just like Trump doesn't want to talk about "gun control", BJJ guys don't want to talk about "mobility" and "hit and run".

Not true - I'm a big believer in movement or mobility as your first form of defense. Just blogged about it today talking about one of RobP's Systema clips.
Gregorz is right about the marketing. I'm not a fan of that aspect. "In Judo we just call it Judo" lol
There's also a lot of Thatcher/Regan style consumerism marketing mixed with "self help" all wrapped up in the BJJ mix.
CMA can't talk though - the Taoist mountain warrior mystic sage qi marketing is strong out there. Any "adepts" out there? That's my favourite - lol. Then there's the internal power Aiki people...
Basically, most things have flaws. Just keep your head down and do your training and ignore it. That's my motto
Namaste.

Most people that pop in and out of those gyms don't put in decades the way you, Pete and D have. Much respect...

Those are some big words coming from someone that is from “the other side of the fence whose qi development is academic” as per his teacher.
Why do you feel the need to belittle other people when clearly your teacher thinks you are not up to par?
Maybe it would be best to actually be any good as per the model you try to train in before coming online into a forum and badmouth other people.
