The Stick Chick: The Entropy Game
http://www.thestickchick.com/2015/08/the-entropy-game.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. We had a really interesting discussion the other day about the nature of how we train, how we think, and chaos. Pretty deep stuff for a martial arts training session, I know, but bear with me. Then we talked about the nature of unconsciousness when I knocked him out. One of my training partners is at the stage of his development where he's going from learning patterns and set responses to specific situations to having to learn how to act and react to what is in front of him.

The Stick Chick: Why I'm Against Online Dojos
http://www.thestickchick.com/2015/08/why-im-against-online-dojos.html
Wednesday, August 5, 2015. Why I'm Against Online Dojos. Technology is an amazing thing, and in many ways, have made the life of a modern martial artist better than ever.

So when I say "online dojo" I mean those older methods too. We see this a lot with weapons, usually performance martial arts...

Saturday, February 28, 2015. Kobudo: Getting Used to the Big Stick. So I had my second formal Kobudo class a few weeks ago. I had to rush to it after rushing from a three hour Modern Arnis seminar to attend class, so by the end of that day, my arms were about ready to fall right off. Pretty much. Image found here. Now that I'm past my fear of formality (see here. I've relaxed a little bit so class is a more enjoyable. Me all gussied up formal-like. No, I have not taken one in my white gi yet. I have been...

http://www.thestickchick.com/2015/07/and-then-there-were-none.html
Wednesday, July 29, 2015. And Then There Were None. Time for another one of those annoying parentbrag posts I make from time to time. Not one little bit. Long-time readers of the blog know that both my husband and I train and teach the martial arts together. You also know that Older Daughter is a black belt in Tae Kwon Do (and has started fencing). We had one more human being in our household not in a gi on a regular basis: Younger Daughter. So, we waited. Worked with her at home a bit, and waited. She w...
