bushido_man96 Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 What do you think the key to good body movement is, in regards to athletic performances, like the Martial Arts?Does it have to do with keeping the knees flexed? Is it having a good athletic stance? Is it staying light on the feet?What does everyone think? https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
James Bullock Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 The key to movement is having bio-mechanical unity in everything you do. However the prerequisite of this is having a high level of proprioception.

Throwdown0850 Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 I think that good body movement could be to keep moving, like sparring for example, you shouldn't stop, stay light on your feet. You must become more than just a man in the mind of your opponent. -Henri Ducard

tallgeese Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Everything starts with a good, atheletic stance. Feet about shoulder width apart and staggered, knees flexed slightly, weight on balls of feet over the center. That's at the core of moving. Then, a bit of lightness and fluidity of movement, grace would be a good descriptor I guess, from there. http://alphajiujitsu.com/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJhRVuwbm__LwXPvFMReMww

But, I do understand proprioception, and it is a good place to start.I also agree with all the others above so far. It is tough to pick just one thing. But, if we needed a foundation, the athletic stance is a good start, I think. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com

doug_kissaki Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Does it have to do with keeping the knees flexed? Is it having a good athletic stance? Is it staying light on the feet?All three of these have one thing in common... bent knees.If you are going to move, the first think you have to do is bend your knees. Doughttps://www.kissakikai.com
bushido_man96 Posted September 16, 2008 Author Posted September 16, 2008 That is a very good point. True as well. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
