I normally hang out in the Korean Arts section, but I am reading a book that mentions usagi tobi or "bunny hops". Can someone tell me what these are? thanks!
Bunny hops are an exercise for the legs, you crouch down, and bounce/jump around the dojo. Sounds easy but you have to stay in crouching position. There is a lot of disagreement about this 'exercise' as to whether its' good for you or not. I believe it has been used as a punishment in Dojos in the past in the manner that press ups are often used. You can crouch all the way down, bum to heels or various degrees almost to standing.
