I post on rma-moderated upon occasion, but haven't posted in rma for quite a while. I look in on it every once in a while. It's somewhat like "All My Children". If you don't watch for a year or so and then tune back in, it's still the same trolls doing the same thing, they just have different targets :-) ------------------------------ From: "J. R.

Me! And I feel no need to read the newsgroup any more, though unfortunately I need to finish up a stupid thread or two I started! Thanks to a friendly invite from Mr. Ray Terry (probably on a member-scouting mission) :), I now have a MA source that comes right to my email. I like all you people already! It's all interesting, even the arguing. ;) - -Sarah Pride- ------------------------------ From: samiller@Bix.Com Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2000 15:51:21 -0500 (EST) Subject: the_dojang: Re: V7 #126: Rotation/teaching But just to play Devil's Advocate (from a TSDer no less;>) might this not be an indication that more gup ranks exist than are actually required? >To clarify, the material is "blocked" as follows: >White, Orange and Yellow are taught in rotation TO THOSE RANKS >Camo, Green, Purple are taught in rotation TO THOSE RANKS >Blue, Brown and Red is taught in rotation TO THOSE RANKS === Tang Soo!

There are a lot of tournaments and events I wouldn't post about. There are lots I wouldn't attend. This is another example of posting with an expressed puppies of distributing viewpoints. Though more subtle. ;^) Speaking of which, the all women's m.a. camp I mentioned, ST2000, is coming up this spring. Not too late to reserve your space! :^) Laura - -- lkamiens@ptd.net lkamnski@bucknell.edu http://home.switchboard.com/LKamienski ____________________________________________________ "I am not an angry girl.

I subscribed to The Dojang Digest only a couple of days ago, and I already like it a lot. The only thing that is not so good are the e-mails about the things not related to martial arts (e. g. feminism, politics,...). If you are interested in these topics, try to subscribe some other mailing list, not this one. You are a little bit boring. Anyway, I recently started to practice TKD and I like it A LOT, but I'm also very interested in Hapkido. I think that there are not any HKD clubs in my country (Serbia), and I'm very disappointed. If anyone would be so kind to write me something more about HKD (which techniques are used except feet techniques - are there any kind of grappling, joint-locks, sweepings, elbow and knees' strikes, etc.; what are the main similarities and differences between TKD and HKD,...). If there has been a lot of discussion on this topic on The Dojang Digest, you can send it to my own e-mail, or if you think this would be interesting to anyone else, send it to The Dojang. Also, if anyone knows anything about HKD clubs in Serbia (I'm not optimistic about this one but it's worth trying, please send it). I don't inquire about HKD this much because I want to start to practice it right now (I've read from The Dojang Digest that it's not recommended to practice two MA at once - at least before you're 1st or 2nd DAN in one), but as I said, because I'm very interested in it. Another thing; I've watched a few Ultimate Fight matches (I think most of you know what it is), and I've seen that mainly fighters who are experts in "close-range" MA (Jiu-jitsu, grappling,...) win against those who are from the world of "punching and kicking" (kick-box, TKD, HKD, Karate,...). What do you think about this? Does anyone have some expirience or knows how to approach the fight when you are in situation like this? How to keep the distance between you and your opponent? Please don't think that I am preparing to participate the Ultimate Fight, I just want to know this. I hope this hasn't been too long; I'll keep it shorter in the future. Kyun Ye to you all.
