Earth Dragon,
Yes, I focusing on training this right now. Relating the hand and foot. Right now they are distant cousins. I'm hoping to have them be twin brothers by New Years
As for the old Okinawan stuff, I love it. Sometimes I can relate to Isshin-Ryu more than Chinese material .... except Wing Chun and S Mantis. Those were two good stops for me.
Shifu
LOL trying to get the relations closer together eh? very good.....
Japanese movements though at begginer level are robotic, are easily adpated to, and once ingrained you never forget them this is why you can realate to them easier, you had to teach the body. and though it seems strange things that are taught rather than easy to come by/perfromed stay with us longer.
it wasnt until the high levles of Go Ju that the style became softer and closer to its root of chinese crane. However many years later still felt like the karate movments being rehersed so many times seemed to flow. Yet years later i felt much more omfortable with the bodys natural movments and now cant think of an other way to move...........
