Thanks for your responses on this guys as it has clarified my understanding of this principle.Loki that brake down was on the money if you ask me. By the way Mantis 108 & Mantis Seeker I have a question: Based on your statement reguarding the way sifu's teach,do you think that they may limit the principles to just one technique & pass it off to their students as such because they were taught that way & they just don't know any better? Or do you think they hold out on this information on purpose.
I mean the way I see it, it just might be a mixture of all the above no one truly knows except the sifu himself. Thats why I feel that the student should seek out as much information as he can in order to get a better or a complete understanding of set principle & or technique that he/she is learning.
Peace
