All -
I do apologize if I am violating forum rules by posting on my first visit.I have a question I think worthy of the forum and I am hoping the many learned individuals here can help;
一歩進みて突き,一歩進みて断つ
Ippo susumite tsuki, ippo susmite tatsu - which I would render "Taking one step forward I thrust, taking one step forward I cut (the enemy down)"
Don't know why but I seem to think this is an expression from Itto Ryu - I have searched other forums and all my back issues of KW but could not locate an example of anything that is a good match. Also tried a search in Japanese with no luck.
Hoping it is obvious to someone here and you all can clue me in to where this might come from, what ryuha it is associated with, what era it might be from and if you can expand on the meaning at all.
Any help appreciated,
-t (for tom or toryu...)
