..........:lfao:.....just.............:lfao:
All righty then.
Seriously?
With whom did you train in daito ryu, and for how long?
With whom did you train in tai chi-what lineage-and for how long?
As for your "research," I've seen research that shows that the aliens from Area 51 are just up the road from my house, along with a laboratory that's the source for every technological advancement since Velcro. :lfao: The only real and demonstrable connection between daito ryu and tai chi is that they were both created by bipedal entities with combative applications in mind, and the use of "internal energy."
-peh!-
Hey I meant nothing by it - you are the one suggesting I am using crack.
Seriously though, I am not interested in laying out my entire book here and now - I will send you a FREE copy when I am done in a few months if you like and you can read it all there. I started this thread to hear if anyone else had stories/ideas/imaginations whatever. It seems I am alone for now and that is just fine.
As to your questions;
My Daito ryu training is from Seigo Okamoto Shihan, and I studied directly from him for 13 years.
My Tai Chi instructors were Brent Angell (student of Richard Kim - trained in both Wudang and Chen Tai Chi as well as Daito ryu under Yoshida Kotaro, Dr. Li (Yang Form - not sure on her lineage sorry) and various friends and students over the years, all of which have been 18 years.
