It's funny how much the striking hand aspects of Hwarang resembled the "palm" systems of Long Fist styles, such as Mei Hua, or Cha Quan before it became wushu, with lots of sweeping, arcing strikes, with the arm very loose and relaxed. Liked it a lot.JoseFreitashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13799512235188753569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201222618566180765.post-41217247159579402892007-10-09T23:43:00.000-07:002007-10-09T23:43:00.000-07:00I remember back when "Korean Karate" practitioners...I remember back when "Korean Karate" practitioners were considered the tough guys on the block.Rick Matzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09699550034693340637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201222618566180765.post-91612348576328596392007-10-09T19:54:00.000-07:002007-10-09T19:54:00.000-07:00Uchi Deshi:Your Boris story with links to your sit...Uchi Deshi:<BR/>Your Boris story with links to your site are coming up!<BR/>H2H: You are right, It should have been McDojang...<BR/>C.C.P.: Oh boy do I know about driving the drunk master around...to strip bars where the bikers wonder what a young white guy is doing with an old Korean guy...

I'll assume you know what that means but there is no such thing is a half empty bottle of Soujou or shortage of singing.<BR/><BR/>Long story short, a guy claiming to be of the NY mob. Who said "Hey shut up you gooks."<BR/><BR/>"Mind your business boy."<BR/><BR/>"I don't think you know who I am." Then pulls, I think it was a .38 or .357 but a revolver.<BR/><BR/>Master -_-_- gets up puts the gun to his forehead, "Shoot."<BR/><BR/>The mafia guy blinks, Master -_-_- b-slaps him and knocks the gun away and says, "Girl when you say something you better mean it now leave."<BR/><BR/>You can guess what happened next. I was driving Master **** home so we left. I was the white boy driver :).<BR/><BR/>But these old timers are Korean war vets. They have a different view on life. And they are national heros, they'll do it and be back in Korea before you can say Bulgogi.<BR/><BR/>True story albeit shortened.<BR/><BR/>People need to understand history.C. C.

Although I think jujitsu is very effective, I agree that it may be a mistake to rely on it in a situation involving multiple attackers!uchi deshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10748618995081328351noreply@blogger.com
