Kirves Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 You mean "kote kitai"? (striking arms / limbs together for hardening them) We do blocks in predetermined drills to strike the forearms together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sho-ju Posted September 22, 2003 Author Share Posted September 22, 2003 Kirves, thanks for the tip. I have only seen it written the way I spelled it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirves Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 Yeah, one of the most popular drills in my dojo: 1. hit the inner forearms together in front of your lower body (both bring the forearms from outside to the centerline - bang) 2. after the hit, pass each other's arms and lift them to the outward block movement (clockwise turn until your inner forearms bang again) 3. then do a low block to counterclockwise direction - bang with the outer forearms 4. retract your arm from his, and repeat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
