aaah, caught you online
yup, 1 is what it briefly got mentioned as on tuesday. i've heard you refer to it as 2 in emails/posts in the past, wanted clarification. 2 is a VERY nice piece of text, hmm maybe we should have a thread about universal principles of stance, posture, footwork
as for thread location, there is 'other related arts' forum? i hardly ever check it though, there's a nice blog there when i remember... i'm cool with it here, just people might not find it amongst the rounds of thai pads, wrestling circuits and perpetual injury. besides, its a bigger subject than anyone's blog, although andrewS does have other escrima discussion in it, so it could easily live there...
