yes..there is alot said isnt there..also applys to my arguement with the new age hippy gung fu men in the xing yi thread or as i like to call them the 3 stooges..probably spelled stooges wrong lolo
something i dont know if its ever been discussed here though that always interested me was, even though few shaolin practitioners or even monks for that matter understand is how much shaolin empty hand techniques are based on bridgeing, which is the basis of most weapons fighting aswell.
i dunno anything about "kendo" which is what he is a practitioner of but you can see the obvious relationship of bridgeing and the importance, espcially at his age.
which is obviously an interesting topic considering alot of people argue u know what came first the weapons or the hand combat, i believe the weapons and that the hand techs are based off weapons, even the sensitivity training etc everything u know..
but thats another topic for probably some more combat oriented peeps
