    What the heck is 'Shaolin TKD'?

    it was the title of an article in that kung fu/qigong magazine. (if memory serves)

    .... someone needs a good slap upside the head....
    The more you know the less you need to show.

    May you be filled with loving kindness.
    May you be well.
    May you be peaceful and at ease.
    May you be happy.

    ... well i did see an article by mr. yan ming a while back on secret shaolin fighting techniques, that consisted of nothing more than simple roundhouse, snap, thrust, and spinning back kicks... (all performed too high to be of any practical use, of course....)

    ... are you sure u didn't mean that Shaolin is all TKD?

    You talking about getting the reverse headlock, pulling them on your back and off their feet and choking the $hit out of them?

    Edit: may I once again reiterate how important being gentle when trying that one is also... My neck still hurts from being shown last night.
