Memories of a Nidan: Do You Believe in Magic: Can you Read Intent?
http://memoriesofanidan.blogspot.com/2012/01/do-you-believe-in-magic-can-you-read.html
Memories of a Nidan. Musings on a 30 year trek in Goju Ryu Karate. Do You Believe in Magic: Can you Read Intent? That which before our eyes defies logic astounds. When one cannot connect the dots from here to there and effect is without apparent cause what can fill the vacuum of understanding? 8217;s article “. Legend and the Martial Arts.”. Or any of the Bruce Lee movies, knowing full well that I can’t. It’s a pro forma way of saying that, ergo, I’m not really. Can you read intent? I’m not talking...
Memories of a Nidan: April 2009
http://memoriesofanidan.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Memories of a Nidan. Musings on a 30 year trek in Goju Ryu Karate. The Kimo Years Come to a Close. Due to personal circumstances, "Memories of a Nidan" will pause for an indefinite period of time, hopefully short. End this part with the following post]. I will touch lightly upon this time as I now face a similar crossroad in my life. Much is better left unsaid. I retire now with this Tensho video (and radio interview below) by Kimo Sensei.

Memories of a Nidan. Musings on a 30 year trek in Goju Ryu Karate. Tales of the Dojo Origin: II –The Shinoda Years. Tales of the Dojo Origin: I -The Three Sensei. To stay and the sweat began. The ElusiveTandoku Kata Dai Ichi. The Fine line That Separates. First Step in a Long Road.

Memories of a Nidan: August 2009
http://memoriesofanidan.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Memories of a Nidan. Musings on a 30 year trek in Goju Ryu Karate. Ruminations: Stay in the Box ‘til the Box disappears. They say it takes 25 to 30 years to create a sound black belt sensei. Imagine the collective and individual energy involved. The time and effort. Black belts don't sprout on trees, they grow and evolve from the dojo experience. White belts are seeds in the ground that the sensei and the dojo in general water and tend, much like a garden (Miyagi's garden dojo! Some say this is the Box, ...
Memories of a Nidan: Fade to Black
http://memoriesofanidan.blogspot.com/2014/09/fade-to-black.html
Memories of a Nidan. Musings on a 30 year trek in Goju Ryu Karate. Don’t use the karategis anymore. They hang together like ghosts in the closet. Don’t use the obi either. At a 45º angle, the invisible dojo lies over the living room floor. Silently at night in darkness I do the Goju katas as I was taught, in the background Pandora plays selections from the Buddha Bells channel. Not knowing exactly how. It is all feeling, breathing, and stepping. The music plays on. Some still practice. Some still go ...

The Great Wave: The "Cut" in Aikiken and Aikijo
http://onlyprinciples.blogspot.com/2011/09/cut-in-aikiken-and-aikijo.html
Tuesday, 20 September 2011. The "Cut" in Aikiken and Aikijo. One question that has been preoccupying me over the past week or so is the following:. Is the standard cut with the ken and the jo (e.g shomenuchi komi with jo and second ken suburi) the same movement? If so, why? So are we doing the same thing, different things, or is it a case of just practising a body movement (for use with taijutsu) regardless of the weapon? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I practice the Wu-Cheng. Why call the blog ".

The Great Wave: Some Karate - Aikido Crossover
http://onlyprinciples.blogspot.com/2011/01/some-karate-aikido-crossover.html
Tuesday, 25 January 2011. Some Karate - Aikido Crossover. Sensei Mike Robertson was taking the class tonight. It was a fun-filled couple of hours which involved looking at the way in which aikido can help you understand some of moves from karate kata (I think Mike is a yondan. I really like the formality and the structure of the traditional Iwama-style class with its emphasis on solid foundation in the kihon. Technique because I am an extremely(! And to a lesser extent with xingyiquan. And he was very he...

http://onlyprinciples.blogspot.com/2009/06/only-principles.html
Saturday, 13 June 2009. Ian Cameron has quoted Cheng Tin Hung saying that, in reality, there are no tai chi. There are only tai chi. I think that this is an important point when one thinks about what happens at the highest level of the art - there are only the foundational principles and the expression of these results in the application. In aikido, this is how I interpret the phrase. The spontaneous execution of the correct technique. So, according to Ian,. Becomes an exercise in free pushing. Steve Mu...
The Great Wave: May 2010
http://onlyprinciples.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Monday, 31 May 2010. An interesting night tonight. We started off with the 20 jo. I was pulling the jo back and then turning the hips. This is not very efficient (and consequently not very quick). Both Sensei Steve and Rajiv advised me to use my right hand to pull the jo to the side rather than backwards and to use this movement to start to turn the hips. The result was a much faster movement. Migi nagare gaeshi tsuki. I was making too wide a circling movement with the jo,. Down from the block, . And the...

Tuesday, 16 November 2010. I had an interesting experience practising the fifth. Steve the other night. When training in. We are always told to cut the opponent not their. S centreline and not try to intercept their cut. If you do this correctly, you automatically protect yourself and maintain your advantage,. Cutting their ken is simply a secondary result of this. Of course, you have to have. To blend with their movement, and your. Has to be well maintained, and your. As I say, we were training the fifth.

Monday, 6 September 2010. Tonight we moved into preparations for the various gradings that will take place over the coming months. We started off with some suwari waza. For me this was yokomenuchi ikkyo, nikkyo, sankyo, yonkyo and gokkyo. I still need to relax more when doing the techniques but they are coming on. We then moved on to some. I found this very tricky and kept getting the grip wrong. The last part of the practice looked at. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I practice the Wu-Cheng. Daniel Toutain ...
The Great Wave: March 2010
http://onlyprinciples.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 31 March 2010. What I'm Reading at the Moment. At the moment, I'm reading two books on taijiquan: . A Study of Taijiquan. By Sun Lu Tang (translated by Tim Cartmell). Mastering Yang Style Taijiquan. By Fu Zhongwen, (translated by Louis Swaim). I've just started them both so I can't give a great deal of comment. The Sun book is my bedtime reading and the book by Fu is for reading on the bus. They're both well-translated and readable and easily keeping my attention. Monday, 29 March 2010. S hand...

Memories of an echo. Embers of a new dawn. Asymp; Leave a comment. Of an old sun. When life takes on. The gravity of death. The safety of a pupa. When fishes for a. When out of the. Abyss a new sun. Let us be embers. Of a new dawn. Asymp; Leave a comment. I will whisper my heart. Sail a boat my soul. Let the world bleed my veins. They will only see a tiny name. The sky riddled with stars. I will open wide the maws of my soul. And spew a universe. That has become me. Asymp; Leave a comment.

Memories of Angels
I will love you even if it takes a lifetime for you to realize that. Sunday, November 8, 2009. MOA - Chapter 4. She told to herself, unable to glimpse at the person she was guilty of something. He came nearer to her, draws his body closer towards her, his hands were wide open. Is he going to grab me and hurt me? Battered me like the other men did to their unfaithful wives? I was right after all. He told to himself. Damn myself! He loves her. And she… Alex… loves him. Right? She said so. And the evide...

Memories of the imperfect guy. Only my memories, stories and that stuff. O ser humano (1ª observação). O ser humano tem muita coisa que me fascina, mas ao mesmo tempo possui imensas outras coisas que me faz questionar se, de facto, o ser humano faz falta no dia à dia de cada um de nós.

Memories of an Oak
What are in the Memories of an Oak? Everything has a story. Maybe in yours you fall in love with someone fictional or get lost in a place you've never been. Maybe you'll fight a monster of your own making or eat a meal of words. Regardless of how your story goes, don't forget to share it with the world. It's the verby glue that binds us. It's not our looks that makes us the same. It's not our color that defines us. What brings us all together is a beginning, middle and end. Fine Literature on Twitter.
