So sound that I have very little to add! In DBMA we look to establish rhythm as a prelude to timing. Trainings such as Snaggletooth and Lower Canines are very much about this.

A very merry Christmas to all of you from the Christian Martial Arts Ministry, here in San Diego, California, where it is a pleasant 64 degrees. I pray that God will bless you all this holiday season, and provide you a happy New Year. Remember, Jesus is the reason for the season! Sifu Brian T.

The breakthroughs in life come from shifts in ones own perception and not in the forceful attempts to alter the outside world. The dance is in walking with what is so while causing your commitments to fulfill.

Just FYI... Don't see your post? See the issue about HTML and AOL 6.0. Sorry... Ray Terry raymail@hpwsrt.cup.hp.com ------------------------------ From: Ray Terry Date: Mon, 25 Dec 2000 11:45:36 PST Subject: eskrima: Martial Musings, Robert W. Smith On my flights to Ohio for the holidays I spent many a long hour in the airport and on the plane (more in the airport than on the plane). I brought Robert W. Smith's new book Martial Musings with to pass the time. Don't waste your time. Aside from a few interesting passages about Donn Draeger, John Gilbey, and Helio Gracie's match against Kimura, it is pretty bad (IMHO). Mostly just his recollection of his life in the martial arts. I was hoping for much more... Save your $$.
