Karate Kiai And The Secret Of Kotodama By: Al Case | - Karate Kiai translates as 'spirit shout,' and it is the deadly scream that karate practitioners emit when chopping somebody's head off.

I am speaking, of course, of the practice of Kotodama, which translates as 'Word spirit.'

Karate Kumite...getting Emotional And Mad Dog Survival By: Al Case | - Karate Kumite and Clint Eastwood, I never thought those two things would come together in a single paragraph. In the old western 'The Outlaw Josie Wales,' Mr. Eastwood talks to some some soft pioneers about how to get mad dog mean when you're in a fight to the finish. There is truth to be found in this advice, but if you are training in classical martial arts training, there is also a falsehood.
Karate Chop Is Not The Deadliest Weapon In The Martial Arts By: Al Case | - Karate chop him, yelled the girl, and I laughed. This was a movie where neither the actor, the writer, the director, not nobody, knew the martial arts. See, people used to think that a karate chop to the neck would kill people outright, of course, this was a while ago.
When I first began studying the art of Chinese Kenpo Karate I was told that a spear hand strike to the solar plexus or the neck was the deadliest martial arts attack one could deliver. Just stick those steel hard fing ... Tags:karate, kung fu, shaolin, keenpo, taekwondo, savate

The Real Shaolin History The Shaolin Masters Can't Tell You! By: Al Case | - The real Shaolin History is one of those animals that's been pretty fouled up. One reason for this is that the communist state controls all history, and rewrites it to suit themselves.

The real history starts with Bodhidharma traveling to China to see the emperor. This tends to enhance Bodhidharma at the expense of the emperor, and it should not be that way. The empe ... Tags:shaolin, wing chun, preying mantis, pa kua chang, tai chi chuan

How Instructors Can Improve Their Martial Arts Abilities! By: Al Case | - One of the most shocking things in the martial arts is how instructors stop their own training.
