<<<Is it at all possible to have very good range of motion but limited
muscle flexibility??>>>



IMHO, yes it is.  For joint mobility and range of motion I would suggest
Pavel's 'Super Joints'.  For muscular flexibility/splits stuff I would
suggest his book 'Relax into Stretch'.  His books are expensive but the
information is priceless, IMO.

Hello Dusty SBN,



I am glad your school enjoyed the seminar.  Especially the painful techniques
(oh the fun).

It is always a good time with GM Timmerman.  Lots of material and hidden
aspects are shared.



There is another seminar with GM Timmerman at the Ramada Inn at Montpelier,
OH.

It will be on Saturday, Oct. 22nd.

For those who have never attended one of the NKMAA seminars, you will enjoy it
and be treated with kindness and respect.

For more information you can go to www.nkmaa.com



Sincerely,



Kevin Janisse

Hello Dusty SBN:
Thank you for the kind words, and it was a pleasure to work with such  
a nice group of young people.  I can see why you chose them to  
represent your school... they are an awesome bunch of hard working  
little individuals.  I was also totally blown away by the support  
these youngsters had from their parents.   Most of them watched the  
entire day, and some fifty of the group showed up for dinner  
afterward.  With that kind of parental support, your group will go a  
long way my friend.  BTW, thank you for your dedication in traveling  
from one end of North-America to the other to train with me at the  
various seminars I put on this Summer.
Rudy

Hello Jye:
Some people use race to dump on others, and some use anything from  
weight to intellect to do it.  In my school, anyone who has that kind  
of attitude is history regardless of rank.

Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net

Not something I am familiar with, and I have lived and visited Korea quite a bit.  Just got back from being over there last week.  I don't recall a kid ever poking me like that.
 
I have been in places in both Korea and Japan where kids would see me and yell out "hello" or "hi" and then giggle with their frinds.  I've had Japanese kids go yelling Gaigin to their friends, etc.  But it is all pretty harmless and it depends if you are in an area with a lot of foriegners or where they are less common.
 
I'd have to ask my wife what ddong-chim means, I'm not sure right off hand.  Hope this helps.
 
Yours in Training,

As I fired off that first response quickly, I realized I meant to say that I am not familiar with anyone picking fights and such with me because I'm an American, and no one has ever poked me.  But I have seen the younger kids running around playing with each other and poking each other all over, not just the butt.

I never received the digest version of Vol 12 #390. If someone could be so
kind as to send me a copy I would appreciate it as it is not yet in the
archive. Thanks you. hapkido@wah.midco.net

Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net

Hello John,

As noted in another post, focus on dynamic (moving) stretches more than static
(sit and hold).
As you develop more strength in your muscles & joints you can move into
isometric (tensing) stretches.
This should help you get over the plateau you on.

A good resource would be "Stretching Scietifically" through stadion.com

Like anything you must be persistant but smart in your training.

Sincerely,

Kevin Janisse
NKMAA

"I'd never experienced racism in martial arts before I spent a month in 
Mississippi last year. I was dumbfounded!"

I have never lived anywhere in the USA where racism did not exist in some
way, shape or form.  But I can say that during my several visits to Jackson
for GM West's highly popular get-togethers that I have not witnessed
it being exhibited.

Bob:
    I know where you are talking about and I won't say it publicly, but I 
would appreciate it if you would say where it "wasn't", so people won't 
think that you are talking about Jackson and my little 
group.......Thanx......JRW
