Grab him by the ears and YELL "What the %#"&%!! do you think you'r doing?" "Now I must severly punish you! MUAHAHAHAH" hmmm where are those pills...

Accurate as always madame

Does knocking yourself out count?? (blush)

Just face them head on. Dont show them ttat you feel intimidated by their size andantage. Unless they can hit you it doesn't matter. As your only 14 u still have a lot og growth in you. just keep on working hard, and u can be as good as you want.

Kick his *. End of problem.

there are no stupid questions my freind.. Its not a bad idea to hit the walls, as long as u dont use force. If u use it to further develop ur striking skills ur technique can improve greatly

to me a black belt represents the first rest stop at a long journey.Dont get me wrong, I dont mean that u can relax just beacuse ur a black belt, but now the first part of your journey has ended. as well as being guided further down the path u have been walking,u now also lead others down the road.

This is one of the better threads that I have read on this forum. For me, Karate is what I put into it, a martial arts system that reflects who I am as a person. I also think that here are two levels of Karate. at the first level u build yourself around the system and let it "form/influence you as a karateka. as you progress to the next level u form the karate around you. I find Karate spiritual in the sence that it gives me a break from the everyday stress. Sorry guys I'm just rambling.

I do Chito-Ryu.

Its bullock's mate. If your a serious student Kyuoushin u will be strong.

If you train part time you get part time results. Its that simple. 5 hours is not to much but such a hard training regime wiill demand that u pay even more attention to what u eat. (I think Kickchick is the expert here on that particular topic)

anger leads to the dark side......

Go to talk to the sensei of the club and hear himout on his view on good and bad Karate/martial arts. Our sensei is black belt in several karate styles and chinese MA, his philosophy is that there are basically two types of karate: good and bad. i wont offend anyone on by saying which is which.

I smell an online mcdojo.

People like the dude you met, is simply below u and not worth the effort and sweat. Just smile and let it pass. Martial Arts people always get blamed anyway. Where in Bergen was this?

that was to funny poor kitty... dont mess with Garfield!

1. brush your teeth 2. Take a shower. 3. Shave your face. 4.dont wear white socks 5 dont show up in a sweaty Gi 6 dont talk about the ltest wossname kata u been practising. 7 pay attention 8. be ur self 9 have fun 10 good luck

Spidey would clock Logan anyday btw. as for killing logan decaitation or drowning would probably do the trick.

The school is runned by Emma Frost and Jean Grey. Though their not the best of freinds since Emma has tried to bed Cyclops. Which of course is ok as far as Logan is concerned. geeks are marching 4 by 4 hrra hurra geeks are m.... I'M STILL A COMIC BOOK GEEK

But dont start with humming noises and such when you meditate at school. unless you like to freak people out like I do :lol

Dont press tu hard with your tongue. It helps to close your eyes. I often use this technique during extra hard training sessions (between intervals and such.) It gives me that little extra energy. For longer meditations try Sai's links. His posts/links never dissapoint

Two quick answers for you, my little furry freind. 1. Ki is regarded by some as "internal energy" that you can use. Other's think of it as bad breath. Personally i'm not so sure myelf, But I do think that Shotokan has Ki as I is the person and not the style that utilizes Ki (some more than others ) As for meditation try pressing ur tumbs against ur index finger and press ur tongue towards the alveolar ridge in ur mouth hope this helps

well said
