As a CM trainer, I have to say that it is not just for beginers. It is great for beginners and will help you to develop a good level of game very quickly, but that doesn't mean it's limited to beginers.
CMD allows you to build your attribute/technical game behind the foundation which the CM Phase 1 establishes. Most people only know this phase and aren't familar with the rest of the system which spans across stand up, clinch and ground.
As you start to develop you will play a more technical game and your attributes (reflexes, timing, slipping, bobbing, weaving) etc will naturally develop. Would a beginner in CM be able to beat an expereince technical fighter, no, but what beginner would. However, the beginner CM player would be able to survive and stay safer rather than blocking punches with there face continually.
I have clients with a background in other styles (boxing, Muay Thai) and whilst their game have been good from day one of coming in the door and have really pushed my own personal game, CM has made them better.... and now they are a complete pain in the butt to spar with ;-P We have given them tools to utilise in their game, or fall back to solid foundations when the s*%t hits the fan and their attribute game has been broken down.
Is CM infalable, no, nothing is, but it's the best thing I've come across so far and until something comes along which can improve my game and every client that walks through our doors to the degree CM has I'm sticking with it.
