I pretty much block out the pain during sparing so it is usually worse a bit later lol.
Top painful hit was probably a kick to the jaw. I was eating soup for a weak after because chewing was impossible. No damage to the teeth tho.
Number two would be a heavy guy who dropped himself on me...
A really short porno since nothing happened lol.
My regular dojo, but the woman was from out of town and visiting for a camp. Have not seen her at any of the gatherings since so I figure she may have quit JJ.
A woman had me in a lock and put my fingers in her mouth once. Nautrally I told her to cut it out(!!!) since it is both unhygenic and unacceptable behavior in the dojo.
After class she and her friend hit on me for a threesome or something. No problem with that, unfortunately they were not my...
I have done the same arts tho very limited kenjutsu. If you keep an open and focused mind I have found all of them add to your understanding of the others, seeing in 360 degrees if you will :)
To the OP, Wado is a technique nazi style. The perfection of stances and execution of technique in dynamic movement. This is not about performance, it is about structure, speed, conservation of energy, delivery, rooting and power. It is raw physics married to body mechanics.
I also questioned...
Hard to pin down the exact percentage, and I think this varies a lot from school to school.
Grabbing your partner and unbalancing/maintaining a superior position is important at all levels.
Throws sweeps and locks are here and there in the pairs work but it does not become a major part until...
Does the strong geometric shape of spheres (and the lesser circles) also aid in deflection at all angles or is this more representative of other patterns?
Obviously you are talking to the wall behind me rather than trying to have a conversation so I`ll leave this thread now and leave you two to continue what seems like an absolutely facinating discussion and exchange of facts and very well though out analysis of the matters at hand. Bye
You "offered" me a scenario where you, for some reason, would take part in a kata competition despite not training kata at all and then you loose said competition. Now why you would do this I sure do not understand but obviously it would be the norm for people who wish to compete in kata to...
I think you just shot the straw man there :p
I am probably the last person here to waste my time rigidly classifying terms or argue over favorite words, a popular patime on MT tho it appears :D
If you want to train sparring then train sparring. If you want to train kata then train kata. You...
Hmm if you loose in a kata competition, in a style that focuses on kata, after having done NO kata training then it is you who have not followed the style`s training regimen.
Likewise if you never fire your gun you will be a bad shot. And? The army needs soldiers with field endurance, not a...
How do you learn a style if training does not define the art? What does training define then?
How I move: On the bubbeling well.
How it fits into a fight: The basis for fast, strong and dynamic techniques while maintaining structure.
Plan for victory: Screw you guys, I am going home
Pushing 40 myself so guess I should plan ahead for this crisis thing. If I pass on the fancy cars and only post now and then on MT, can I have two or three times as many young women?
