Samurai Shotokan

When you friends talk about there pearls of wisdom about arts they looked after Bloodsport. Its like wow you know what the word Kumite is do you want a cookie?.Or how when you watch it with your friends there like can you do that back roundhouse to his back of the neck solar plexus(translation:can you use a hook kick to the back of the head) and just ignorant stuff like that but hey ignorance is bliss. Or how they go on and on like there know it alls that makes me get real fed up

I was wondering how aikido works since you dont strike back you just flow with you attackers energy. It looks like it doesn't hurt but i guess it does.Ive also heard its hard to learn as well is this true?

Well i know bunkai for my kata's I am just looking for more thats all.I might find something that suites me real well thats why i wanted to see if there was Bukai sites and stuff

Well Ive heard alot about it too but like i said i have yet to see it. i have seen clips of it( like less than 30 seconds) but it looks emotional and funny too.

I want to know if there is any bunkai for the Heians espcially Heian Godan. More visual than written because i think when i see the application then reading about it

Ok i see where your coming from its that when people who dont like a certain thing tend to put negative stuff on topics.

Actually ive never seen Once More With Feeling but i heard its really good.Another great episode is Superstar where Johnathan becomes the local hero. Cathal why are you reading this if you dont like the show in the first place??

Yeah im really fed up with it as well. one of my friends likes to pretend hes a MA he practised holding a REALLY Lousy side kick by a wall and asks me about pressure point stuff. At least he knows when I spar in class with pads it Does hurt. He likes to practise real bad moves when im around it gets on my nerves cus he likes movies like Bloodsport which dont help any of Us

Uh Red Dawn how did Hush scare you? was it a good scared?? I convinced my friend to watch that episode but she couldnt watch it the whole way through the silence got to her and she had to watch something else

Pardon My igonrance but whats the difference between a normal blue belt and the Mid night blue aside from the stripes?

ok thanks but can you tell me the different levels of cuttings ?? So i know limits like Light Meduim Heavy Cutting

Well i missed Buffy from when it first aired. I was aware of it and saw stuff on it but never saw it until i heard about Hush after it was cancelled. The way i found out about that was when i bought Family Guy on DVD and i saw a thing for the season 4 box set. O well I plan on Getting all the seasons soon yeah 100th post and didnt know it!!!

Hey man wheres the love. You gotta release the good!!

theres probably alot of people on this site who like the show. So how to discuss this I think listing your fav episodes and why would work My favorite episode is Hush i love the silence in it and the Gentlemen floating around. It was so cool to see and everything. I aslo like phases and Bewitched Bewilder and Bothered

The only thing I know about them is that they are wieghted and what makes tham different from wrist wieghts?

Has anyone else seen these types of courses? Its seems really fishy i found a site that says its better than schools.....which is just wrong which is right here http://www.villari.com/

I like to do front kicks over chairs btw i have wrist/ankle wieghts anyway should i do my kicks SLOWLY with them on?

Well my Shihans black belts is faded and and it looks a light blue and when he demosrates a kata it is insane the power he has. So he has my respect there........sorry for boasting about my instructor i am just proud to train under him

you guys think the movie is weird when people dress up and go to it they have certian parts of the film where you get to do stuff 1.throw rice a Brad and Janet after the Wedding 2. Throw toast at the toast there are more as well but i dont remember

You wouldnt happen to have a link to explian in more detail about Muay Boran. Your definition is kinda vague

I was watching this show called "Deadly Arts" where this women travels around the world learning different arts and they were doing Muay Thai one week when i watched it. It seemed they hade some Traditional forms in it ( that i can remember) but she also used the two sticks( sorry i forgot what they called them). So is there any Traditional things in Muay Thai or is there Traditional Muay Thai or what?

Its not the technique i need help with its because I need to get more flexiable knees to do these kicks and hamstring streches does anyone any good ones. I have no trouble with side kicks. i just need to make my hamsting muscle stronger and my knees more flexable please help

Moving is kinda hard in this stance but at least katas make it easier. Aes you wouldnt happen to have any videos with shiho hai and/or Nashisho(sp) because they are katas i know but i still have some troubles with them

I know most of the people on this forum are old enough to remember the RHPS and for those who dont know what its about its a Musicial with.... Tim Curry Susan Sarrandon(sp) Meatloaf and its very twisted and its a Cult film

All i know is that karate and sumo have a low kiba datchi stance. Karate and Judo share strikes and takedowns to some extent. So can some traing methods be crossed over to help like i hear that Sumos do stomp training to strenghen there legs and have tough palms from hitting poles. As for Judo im not sure how it could compliment Karate methods or vice versa. And for those who laugh at Sumos need to do some research they are tougher than they look.
