Zaine

Thats awesome, i agree with you 100%, i have said this time and time again on here and you explained in a way that i couldnt, it all depends on the fighter, and the instructor teaching the fighter, it doesnt matter how much you want to fight and how good you are, its the instructor that makes or breaks the student, you cant really blame a fighter for being bad without looking at the instructor first.

Yeah very good point, but then again, i still say it depends on the people fighting, what would be a good thing to cross train is TKD and karate

Get someone to teach you for one, and the sai has to go past your arm so that a sword would be able to hit it and go down your arm without cutting you

Yeah i agree just dont worry about it

Well as a greenbelt he has to have control and so hs not going to pound on a white belt, but thats pretty cool

THANKYOU!!!

Yeah and it might take some time to take one down so the plan, although well thought up, is probally not the best one.

Waid, i did know that Bushi Matsumura founded it...and for the sai thing, i guess its a matter of someones beliefs, and, where could i see some katas being done by Ho Han Soken?

Ha thats great, i love that

I dont know who wrote them i read it up in a library and i didnt really think to check the author, my master is a guy name Steve Pinder, he was trained by Fusei Kise which was trained by Ho Han Sokan, the originater of Shoring Ryu (i think dont be surprised if im wrong,) so i think he would know something on the matter

Thats very dangerous for the fighter to do, control comes first in my book

Well just learn the kali sticks and ask you sensei/sefu (i dont know what kind of system your in,) if he could teach you th bo if he/she knows it

Yeah i agree with that one

Theres no going to be a lot of stuff on that and at your rank its dangerous to tell you that, not that you couldnt use the information responsibly, its just that its not something you really need to learn right now

Yeah, its like musashi says " to learn how to fight without fighting, is like learning how to swim on sand." Miyamoto Musashi

No, it was a little harsh and it makes your sensei look bad when you do that

Its half in the upper body and half in the leges, what you do is pull your legs up and pump your legs as high as you can

Weapons of the Fedual Era, History of Okinawa, and my master know a whole lot about it.

Alright ill look in to it

Just random books about okinawa, internet sites looking up radom things about weapons, and im talking about the sai

yeah my book, dont take the cheap way out, go find a school! ahhh

i take there leg push it over my head and throw them on there back

like you do your shoes

Oh yeah that is a very good point you definetly want to watch out for that

Yeah thats a good point, yeah, i guess ask other people that have hel tournaments
