			<description>Even when you think you got everything covered.......traniing can always through you a blind side.



We were training recently with shikomi zue  after demonstrating with wodden weapons we need to use a real one to illustrate several specific points of the weapon. Despite me beleiving I covered every safety option and moving very slowley I still mangaed to cut a friend very badly on a finger.



Saftey must be foremost in our minds when we train.

			<dc:creator>Merlyn</dc:creator>
			<description>After all the nonsence..the goverment has decided to relax the ban on swords. You are now able to purchase as long as you provide some proof you are a martial artist.



Some require a copy of the Dojo public liabitlity, others a membership card of sorts.



Seems a better way of policing it.



BTW..prob should be in the rant section but I wrote a letter to the home office congratulating them on the ban of martial arts weapons, as there have been 22 murders in London to date and not a  ...</description>

			<description>thank god for the rant section......I think I'd explode without it LOL



Now the media idiots have the headline Karate expert kills family in car



Some idiot has gassed himself and his kids after some dispute.



What does Karate have to do with it?



Bloody journalists that need to get a real job needing to 'sex' up a story to sell newspapers.

			<dc:creator>Prof. Akers</dc:creator>
			<description>We've been playing with chi for the past few weeks.

I've a new crop of black belts so now's the time.

Here's a good one for you to try.

Concentrate on the first 2 fingers of your favourite striking hand.

Using just these two fingers snap a very quick snap on your training partners bare arm saying &quot;Cha&quot; (very softly).

Time the words to the snap.

We got some blisters coming up like when we do Red Sand Palm, so I turned the lights out and when it really works you get sparks!!!! </description>

This is so they all look the same and all the movements are equal. Dont matter how good they are if they are taller or smaller or lighter or heavier they all have to-be exact in every way.

Haven't posted for awhile been busy with work and all, and I've started a new web site, but thought I'd let you know about a course I'm oganizing for sometime in the summer in the Milton Keynes area. 



The course will run over two days and cover WW2 combatives, this course will be conducted by a guy from up north who is also a police officer and has studied in Canada with the Canadian use of force team, so he will also be able to give advice on how you stand with regards to the  ...</description>

			<description>All my life I've trained hard even though I've picked up injuries.

One time my jujitsu club took on a judo club, I got thrown - hard and dislocated my leg.

My instructor put me out, put the leg back in, smothered it in tiger balm and told me to get on with it.

The list is too long to go on with but here's the question - should you do it?

My view now is get over the injury then come back when you're fit, cold damp mornings are hell now with the accumulation of broken and dislocated bones.

(Just enough to make me a worse fighter than if i had no training at all...). Before starting my current job, I studdied several weapon styles Including fencing, some lessons of Bushido, Escrima, and a few other classes here and there. I have also Dabbled in The Filipino style Kali, and the Millitary Vangaurd Style (To cause as much pain to the opponent as you can). I ended up  ...</description>

So I'm on the back-up to the back-up, like me it's old but functional.

One bit of news, went on a Zanshin Course this week-end, got a big shock - 8th dan!

Do I feel worthy - no.

Am I a better martial artist - certainly not.

The only thing that is certain, the older I get, the less I know or is it that the more I know the more I see how much more there is to learn? Probably.

Anyway it was fun.

			<description>One of the reasons all we suffer a sword ban is cause of idiots like this :



http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/north_west/7398202.stm



Not a problem with their veiwsd, but to do this in a front garden by a main road is bound to give out the wrong message.



Plus they need to learn how to handle weapons before they try to throw them at each other LOL.



If your reading this guy's give us a call and we'll show you how to do it properly :-) </description>

			<description>Does anyone think mixing martial arts together is a good idea, I was thinking of the people who add say Karate with say Judo to create a &quot;New&quot; art. I just get the feeling that both arts may lose somethig. And these people don't always bring anything original in to this &quot;New&quot; art. I know the arts which are taught in the Bujinkan (there are nine arts taught) seem to have a common theame which tie them together, but modern arts seem to just have a mix n match feel. What do you  ...</description>

they did 15,000 kicks in an hour ( yep thats right 15,000) 15 took parts and pushed out 1000 kicks each in an hour , really happy and proud .

they made an outstanding contribution to a well just cause .



what makes it more amazing is the yongest was 4 yrs old , and wanted to go on and do more .



very humbleing indeed :-)

			<description><![CDATA[Kicking or punching? 
<br />

<br />
Which one do you prefer? Kicking or Punching
<br />

<br />
Kicking: 
<br />

<br />
Positives- Longer reach, More power, easier to block low kicks
<br />

<br />
Negatives- Slower to recover
<br />

<br />
Punching:
<br />

<br />
Positives- Faster strikes, faster recovery, can easily counter, block upper attacks.
<br />

<br />
Negative- Short distance, weaker than Kicking]]></description>

I`m fed up of reading in papers and magazines &quot; Train to be a martial arts instructor in 12 month + &quot;



this really get to me as a martial artist because how can you get all the year and expertise needed to be a instructor in 12 to 18 months. No one can get to skill knowledge in any art. I like so many train for years and hard to learn everything possible and know it inside out and work for it and then you read this crap learn this or that in this time.
