Do any of you believe that someone could fight with the senses besides sight? This could help in the dark, etc. :karate: :argue:

May the sword protect you, and your mind guide you!

Been watching to many movies Grasshopper :karate:

Getting a blackbelt just says you have learned the basics and are ready to actually study the form as an art.

At our dojo we have an exercize that help with this.

Everyone get in a large circle with one person in the middle.The person in the middle either has a blindfold or closes her eyes.Then sensei points at one or more people and those people go in and atack the blindfolded person with the goal of either getting them to the ground or holding on to them in a way that they can't defend themself any longer.

The blindfolded person has to use senses other then sight to defend agains the attacker(s).

It realy helps you sharpen you other senses.

God has not given us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of love, a spirit of power, and of self-discipline.

Have practiced blindfolded for decades . Once a month or so I will throw a blindfold on and practice basic techniques , forms and a few contact drills with partner ( mostly push hands sometimes sticking drills too ) . Aside from the comic relief it really helps with balance and co ordnation . Not sure fighting would a good idea , for me anyways . have a hard enough time not landing on my butt without any help . :lol:

We are not so much individual beings as individual points of perception within one immense being.

yeah i can see its usefulness for practicing accurate stance, technique, and improving balance, - but depriving yourself of sight and then being attacked could end up going wrong.... you could always roughly script it?:

Thats good training. We do alot of the same thing at My Krav Maga school :wink:

As far as fighting like blindfolded in a sparring match, never saw that.

I Know i've been in the roda with a pretty darned skilled guy who happens to be blind. He has to control the other person more.
