Well if you watch the karate things on ESPN2 you see a lot of new kata. Basically fancy tumbling. LOL. We have developed some weapons kata out of our tradtional Shotokan kata just for fun. There is no reason why anyone of us can not make us a kata. However the kata you see in the traditional arts have lasted the test of time and must be pretty useful or they would not still be taught. So remember its fun to play arround but don't become god in you creations.

Welcome to KF

Sounds like a good ole county boy to me. Come on back now ya here.

Welcome to KF

Welcome to KF.

Welcome to KF

I am back. LOL Im still teaching and coaching but thats why I have not been arround. About a month ago my cpu went nuts and now I got me and brand new Dell AAAAHHHHH...... Happy G..... Ok so for you guys who have joined KF in the last month Ill talk to ya soon. Just letting the old guard know Im still kicking and back ready to post.

Nice job guys. Sorry I've been gone but the new cpu is comming soon. LOL See ya then.

I don't know your age or rank but this is why I will always be against kid black belts. Age and size plays a factor I don't care what anyone says. Just hang in there and remember the better people you spar the better you get. You only learn by loosing.

Depends on the person. Punching is simpler and can be used more often. Kick have greater power and can let you attack more parts of the body. To each his own but you better be able to do both pretty good.

Both will fit. Key word is Martial Arts. ARTS that is. In art their is no right or wrong only what you see and think is pretty. If it was Martial Science then some things would be true and other would be false but art alows each of us t grow to fit the style we choose and make it our own.

A few things to keep in mind. 1. Only teach what you know well. Espically when starting out don't try and teach to much to soon. Stick with the basics and be solid with them. Be able to do them and explain them. Differant applications for each. Its better to know a few things really well than a lot of thing not very well. 2. Don't be afraid to ask for help. If you not sure about a techinque then ask the main teacher. No shame. Also remember you will not be far removed fromt hose you are teaching and they may teach you a few things so be open to their imput. 3. Biggest thing is to be confortable when speaking and doing things in front of others. Be confident in yourself and the others will have faith in you as a result. Good luck

My cpu has gone nuts. I can't surff for much longer than 10 mins. Till it locks up. So I have nto had time to come to KF. Im not gone. Just not here. LOL. I got a new Cpu on order so I'll see you guys sometime soon.

I usually give my studnets 2 weeks notice.

Unlikely. MT would give you the chance of doing that more so than any style IMO. You can learn a lot in 6 months a do well in simple SD but not even the best black belts can defend themselves all the time in the street.

Send him home.

You can only give back to those willing to take it. I wish everyone would get into MA as we do but I am very selctive of who I teach. However I do a lot of things for the town and community as a teacher, coach and sensei so I never look at is as what have I done for you lately.

Well break it down into say 2 hrs mouring and 2 hrs at night. That is 4 and is real commong place. Being Jet Li or Jackie Chan and your incom means you have to look good on film I would say that is nothing. Now being the avg. joe like me and you who has to work or go to school all day its a bit differant.

I think anyone does....

Ok I did not take the time to read all 6 pages yet lol but now that I see other geeks I will ask this. LOL. When I last read a comic book about 7 years ago or so Wolverine had the adamantium jerked out of his body by Magento. Did he ever get it back. His claws were bone then and he still used them but they broke from time to time. Did the healing factor ever kick in and replace the adamantim? I hope so....
