I was mistaken then. It did look like "enters the door." It still doesn't have the feel of a mantis like the more recent forms that were taught out do have.Originally Posted by Golden Tiger

Question:
Is it required of SD students to learn the volume of "kata" so often complained about, or does the syllabus vary instructor to instructor?

"Who dies first," he mumbled through smashed and bloody lips.
there are required forms for rank and other forms one can learn as well on the SD site I think there is a required list of forms kc
It sort of varies from region to region.Originally Posted by Vash
If you look here:

Look at the first black to second black requirements. Alot of the stuff is taught electively. What is taught here in Tennessee are the four tigers, four spears, classical pa kua and Tai Chi. None of the rest of it is taught as rank advancement and the previously mentioned forms are the ones tested over. As far as I know other regions teach some other stuff as rank advancement, however the core of the system there are the forms mentioned and they are tested over everywhere. Without all of the other stuff it's alot to learn in two years.

Required:
1st to 2nd- Tai Chi (Yang 64) and Classical Pa Kua
2nd to 3rd- Hsing Ie (5 roads, 12 animals,Linkage)
3rd to 4th- 4 roads/books of the Hua
4th to 5th- 5 drunken immortals
5th on-
To each of these ranks, optional material is added to make 10 forms total for advancement.
Again, this may vary in different places but as a whole, thats the way it is done.

I don't know the guy personally but from those who have read it, they say that it is a very well written childrens book. There are supposed to be more coming out later in the set.Originally Posted by Thunaric

Once there was a mosquito who thought he was a fly and the "fly" kept saying he was a Fly. So was he a fly or a mosquito ? Either way i squashed him. Did I use Shuto or buddha "s Palm good question. Did I kill the fly or the mosquito? Who cares as long as it is dead. kc
