Sifu Graves is a very humble man. He prefers to let his skill speak for his ability. His knowledge base is incredible to say the least. He has the ability to speak for hours on the subject, and in a way that he readily gets his point across. He is one of the best teachers by far in martial arts today but it is high level skill that is the foundation of his teachings. His philosophy is that fighting should be effortless --- and that's how it is for Sifu Graves.
