BLACK BELT SEVENTH DEGREE (BB VII), A.S.P. PURPOSE OF THE PROGRAM:  

The Black Belt VII A.S.P. program includes mostly combinations of techniques learned so far. A candidate for this rank must be active in promoting and teaching A.S.P., or have considerable involvement in A.S.P. affairs. He must have mastered all previous programs and be familiar with the concepts explained in the next chapter. It has been mentioned often enough that the number of possible combinations of motions available to a human being is truly staggering. Therefore, what follows should not be viewed as an attempt to cover even a small fraction of all possibilities. The EXAMPLES studied are meant only to give a feeling for the many opportunities to apply combinations and to help understand why the A.S.P. method, emphasizing the application of the Five Principles, is meaningful and productive.
