View Full Version : CLF - One and done!
OK...I went to check out a CLF class last night and all I can say is I'M HOOKED!
What an amazing experience. As weird as it sounds, after a long time in no-man's land, I feel like I found my art. What's really amazing is the opportunity came from nowhere. It was something I was not really considering but man am I glad I made the call.
Amazing! Truly amazing!
arnisador 03-23-2007, 10:24 AM Good for you! What kind of things did you practice--forms, techniques, sensitivity drills...?

Pretty much all of the above. Techniques/sets, stances/stepping and sensitivity drills. I got to watch some of the sparring too which was really great - much different that I'm used to.
Thanks.
clfsean 03-23-2007, 12:20 PM That's cool. The biggest thing I can offer is to not get in to the politics too much, loosen your waist & shoulders & listen... that'll get you way down the road in CLF.
Enjoy!

Thanks. Will do.
I may some trouble initially with the waist/shoulder thing but I'm sure I'll get there. Seeing the instructor move last night was eye-opening in that regard. Relaxed power. It was cool to watch.

CLF is a great kung fu style. It's only going to get better. Best of luck in your training.
