Another way to discover is the Art of Feeling. Start Grappling with another and you will find yourself subconscioussly doing Kata moves. If you are looking or feeling for them it will happen... provided you are in touch enough with your Kata. As you work this it becomes easier until all you do is se...

If I may be so bold... we currently have a thread on Uechi Ryu and the closed Gate Posture in Particular. The volume of links made it easier to just post this one to the thread. This is not as a gimick to get you to visit and I will immediately remove it from this thread if asked. Lets look at what ...

Wing Chun is also based on Eastern thought and method, including Dim Mak & Kyusho. The lower gate also is associated with the 3 warmers in acupuncture terminology. And another level of understanding the Art and it's ideas. I just don't want you to be limited in thought and I did not come to stir...

This is to let you know that Uechi Folks are already registering and it looks to be a great workout! Click here to register online!

No this time around it seems a bit more level headed, yet I think both of you are thinking this too much as opposed to getting out there and smackin a few folks. Sonnon, It is as you wrote how we train: from general to specific, - see a head try to hit it this way. from gross to fine, try now to use...

Sonomon, I agree that a fighter waiting for an attack is much more likely to brace against it... just like our old demos of standing KO's we took so much slack for. What people do not realize is that it is harder to KO someone that is expecting and bracing... I have said that time and time again. In...

Bill, We don't see it in the UFC because none of them study it. The questions you pose and that many others ask is how do you know it will work for real... you can't possibly know anything as the dynamics of each person, attack and situational occurances are always different... have you ever seen a ...

No problem. TCM used, yes there are 3 points on the top hand and 2 on the bottom that form "clusters". They are just where nerves in between each vertebrae emerge, except one of the lower ones is where one nerve ends. Hitting them in motion isn't really that hard with hard practice.. examp...

I mean that as an explainaiton of possibility is forwarded the post ended seemingly from that. The move shown (also a popular idea with slight variation in many arts from Okinawa and China), is the very move in discussion where you sit back in a stance and splash your hands downward. The targets, if...

I just killed another thread on Canna Sensei's forum like this too.

Yes sir... or to paraphrase an onlooker during one such exhibition... "Drop'em lack a sack a taters".

Sorry Can't resist...

I was just emailed from a man living in Edmonton looking for training partners... I know there are a few here. If you see this please email me at: evan@kyusho.com

Mine is Budo because it showcases more obscure Arts... Uechi will be soon as well. It is not built on the fads of the day but articles on all Arts as an overview. It takes getting used to as headquarters is in Spain and it has a European Flavor but the Photography and Quality is so far beyond any ot...

Dana,

I wish you could be there as Jim will be teaching Traditional Uechi infused with Kyusho. He will be working with Dan Kumite, Arm Conditioning drills, Bunkai, Kata and more... it will be a great venue as I have seen him teach and he has a great style!
