    I'm driving and out of town, but I'll have to check my old curriculum manual. I recall it having notes that the attack my be ashi barai. Grab and push or pull is the setup.

    Interesting topic, I cross train every now and then in Judo. Martially I always train from a self defense perspective. Judoka look to grab and counter grabs sometimes that essentially provides no...

    If you describe what you do as "martial arts" then it should be effective for self defense. Neither of what you described is important to me in a leader. It's about self improvement, health,...

    I agree. When it comes to martial arts I'm a research nerd. As for Shorinji Kempo my interest has always been in what Doshin So built. He grabbed parts from different styles to build an art that he...

    I wouldn't call this second hand as it's the son of the Hakko Ryu founder. Koryu arts or more Gendai arts that act like Koryu such as Hakko Ryu keep scrolls that all students must sign. Doshin So is...

    Yep and note HOW the lock is achieved on the very first one! - the Monk throwing the punch gains the Qin Na lock - it's called bridging and sticking. Your strikes are thrown not necessarily to strike...

    Of course histories can be debated in many ways. Personally I don't mind if parts of Shorinji Kempo don't all come from Chinese sources. Having trained in both Chinese and Japanese arts, the Shorinji...

    This is where I disagree. WHY would you ever focus a connection point to someone's knee?! How is that related to someone 's center?

    I will say, Yuuki So took some time and talked with my wife for a while about the building of Hombu, how Doshin So had Buddhist divination done to select the site and other stuff. She is very nice.

    This is only natural in martial arts especially handed along family lines. The 2nd generation looks to profit.

    It will take a few Kenshi to maintain the torch of what's real for the day when the...

    I see some on youtube, but I've heard that hombu has never authorized them officially.

    to further the question. When you block the strike can you explain how it disrupts the opponents structure and mass? How should it load the weight in the opponents legs?
