Discussion ideas
Posted: Thu Jun 20, 2002 2:56 am
As a new comer here and one who is fairly new to Uechi-Ryu (studying less than a year), I would find it very helpful to see discussions on some of the training basics. For instance at my stage of learning, I'm just beginning to get a small understanding of kata, the exercises, etc. I'm working on basics and trying to get focused and learn as much as I can to have a good foundation. At times things come easy, other times, I struggle just to be able to push through and hang on until I can feel like I'm actually learning. More discussion from folks in the Kyu ranks and things to help us progress and understand would be very helpful (at least to me).
I've purchased a few books, my Sensi has provided handouts, and is always willing to talk after class or answer e-mails. And I think I have a pretty good relationship with my peers in class. That and a 6 year old son who is taking classes also.
Otherwise, I find some of the discussions here helpful in a global sense, and others I can't relate to. But I do like how everyone is very civil and helpful to one another. In other words another tool to use in the journey.
