    That is a huge issue I see now-a-days with martial arts. It's hard to find schools that are teaching the authentic principles of the art.

That's always been a problem actually. It's just that the success of MMA has brought to light how bs some of the more "traditional" styles are. Competition weeds out which techniques are effective and which ones are sorely lacking in merit. Even if you go to a school that is authentic, that doesn't necessarily mean it's good.
