    Fade away?

    I feel like I've faded away.

    According to Decheng, the basics have always been important. In fact, even now, during his training sessions, the basics are always practiced. The older monks, whom I had observed many years ago, kind of foregone this, and practiced their "basics" in the forms. Which, is a good way to practice basics.

      basics are basics. sometimes they vary by style but for the most part they are what everything stems from.

      theres a saying...even if u forget all your forms, and all the techniques you were taught, if u have good basics, you have good gung fu. thats why i tell people learn from a style that teaches u good basics. or more accurately one that instills what basics are and how they correlate to fighting, and why that is important..

      and that has little to do with the 6 harmonies..

        My "master" never trained at the temple but he has lots of weird stories not for sharing here.

        Shi De Ru (Shawn Liu) mentioned something about having to eat bark and clay during some hard times in China. I guess thats pretty basic....what a knee slapper

          I occasionally do the basics, but i do repeat the forms like 3 times at least every day, and some days i practice the forms in slow motion.

          Master Li told me that he didn´t saw his parents but only one day a year!!!!. He was just a kid!!!.

          An that one day he broke his leg, and the day he was recovered his Master told him to climb running to Damo cave 3 times. That's training!

                    47. Which is almost a 12.

                    Now don't tell us you have "big feet".

                            hmmm

                            Now that Onesp1ng is back in the states perhaps that can be arranged. We could have a roud robin tournament Maestro, Mortal, Onesp1ng, and if you are lucky I'm might be around to put my trademarks around everybody's eye.

                              Maestro is a true sentimentalist....that sadly only knows how to express himself through aggression. but if that's how you enjoy yourselves... then go fight.... and enjoy.
