Looks like traffic is light these few days, so I thought I'd throw in a question or two. What do you do if you are in a situation where you cannot phycially practice or attend classes due to injury? How to you maintain your knowledge, remember your forms, etc? I'm not talking about sprains or burises, but more serious injuries where the doctor tells you to stop for 2-3 months? Just wondering...

Just wondering if anyone can tell me the korean translation of a cut kick. I've asked my master to show me what a cut kick is and he doesn't know what is (His english is not to good). So any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

So any > help would be appreciated! It might help if you just describe it to him. A cut kick is just a kick used to (hopefully) set up a score. It is sort of a thrusting angled side kick to the hip of the opponent. The purpose of the kick is unbalance your opponent so that you can follow with a scoring technique. In the October '98 issue of Karate Kung-Fu Illustrated, Herb Perez has an article on the Cut Kick. Perez said in that article: "The cut kick is the most effective opening technique in competition today. Used properly, it opens the door to many point opportunities while allowing you (the attacker) to maintain a safe defensive posture." "The cut kick has awesome offensive capability tempered by limited defensive liability. It is a safe and effective kick due to its strong initial motion and attacking integrity. Your knee provides cover as you advance forward. At the time of contact, your foot applies force against your opponent's center of gravity. This causes the defender to move backward."
