In preparation for the 2024 Italian HK Workshop, I am considering what I need to do for all participants from May 31 to June 2.
Several HK instructors, black belts, and colored belts from other countries will be joining.
I am still contemplating the importance of basics in martial arts. I would like to ask some questions about frontal strikes, which were explained during the last seminar in Minnesota, USA 🇺🇸.
I previously wrote about frontal strikes as follows:
Questions about frontal strikes:
1. Do you simply think of it as cutting straight ahead in a straight line? 2. Can you explain the correct path of cutting, which is the path of the blade, that is, the front? 3. Can you show the path where energy naturally extends according to the principles of body movement? 4. If you understand that, can you then tell us how and what to practice next? 5. Have you ever thought about how to tell a story and discuss philosophy through a single strike? 6. Have you ever imagined why you can even bring up such stories?
I hope these questions will lead to deeper discussions and learning during the workshop.
