It was fantastic to see all my friends and to make new ones. What a better way to get to know some one then to pin them on the ground:) Thank you Dr. Kimm for your patience and understanding yesterday. It was great fun and I think I even learned something :) Thank you GM West for hosting Dr. Kimm's Yudo Seminar!!!

GM West and Dr. Kimm are fantastic instructors. Dr. Kimm definitely ensures everyone learns a technique properly before going to the next. I especially enjoyed how he didn't just run people through a technique and moved on. If someone had trouble he'd personally step out on the mat and assist them. Watching him roll around on the floor was amazing. Especially for his age. If that's not motivation and inspiration I don't know what is. Hope to see everyone in February. v/r Michael Munyon -----Original Message----- From: KATHY KELLY [mailto:kat_kelly@sbcglobal.net] Sent: Sunday, January 21, 2007 10:04 AM To: Dojang Digest Subject: [The_Dojang] Saturday with Dr. Kimm Saturday's Yudo Seminar in Jackson MS was a tremendous success and a great time.

Much like product placement ads in movies and TV shows are used to increase program revenues, many local news stations are using purchased news segments and human interest stories to increase revenues. A few years ago I had a student who came to me with a third dahn in Choi Kwang Do. He had OK kicking and punching techniques but he sure was not interested in learning HapKiDo. All he wanted to do was kicking and punching drills. I would work with him some times one on one after classes with punching and kicking drills (many of the same drills I practiced twenty plus years ago while studying TKD ). The student's comment was "these are the same type of drills GM Choi teaches, except he never locks his arm out and throws hooking punches." My thought on this is if every person who learns an art only distills out and passes on those techniques which work for them the art will sooner or later be lost. There are many HapKiDo techniques which I personally prefer over others but as a student of the art it's important to learn as many of the techniques as I can so when I teach I can pass on the body of knowledge and not just what I prefer. Just my opinion, Don Kirsch --__--__-- Message: 5 Date: Sun, 21 Jan 2007 18:46:07 -0800 From: The_Dojang To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Subject: [The_Dojang] Pajamas Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Whenever looking far to the East, be sure to duck Sunday, January 21, 2007 Huntsville Times When I was young "Kung Fu" was my favorite show. I embraced all things Far Eastern. Unable to cut meat from my diet completely, I managed to limit myself to eating vegetarians. I wanted to be a Shaolin monk. I figured I qualified because I liked incense. Looked for, I could not be seen. (If I hid under the bed.) I could walk through walls. (In a house trailer.) And I could walk on rice papers and not wrinkle them beyond use in the ceremonial burning of medicinal herbs. I strove for serenity. I cursed less and quieter. When provoked, I tried to flash back to when I was baldheaded and wore bedsheets. I enrolled in judo classes and bought heavy-duty pajamas. The first thing we learned was how to fall down. I was clumsy and excelled. Repeatedly, to the point of instinct, I flapped my arms downward and slapped the mat just before my body landed. This "dissipated the force" and kept the fall from hurting. I looked forward to the day I snatched the M&M's from my teacher's hand, but dreaded when I'd find the exit blocked with a Hibachi full of hot charcoal to be set aside with my bare forearms and forever brand them with the word "Weber." Within a couple of months, at my instructor's behest, I enrolled in my first tournament. As he took my $25 enrollment fee, he said I would do well in his tournament because I was "hard to throw." He told me I was "short, heavy, and built like a fireplug." He made that sound like a good thing. My opponent was a brown-belt kid half my size. Apparently the little guy didn't hear the instructor say how good I was. He picked me up and threw me over his shoulder so fast and hard that I hit the mat with a "splat" like a wet sack of sheets. My finely honed instinct became extinct. There was no time to slap mats and dissipate the force of an impact that knocked me breathless and made my nose gush blood, untouched. The kid collected his trophy before I got up. I switched to karate - Tae-Kwon-Do. The pajamas were lighter, plus it was co-ed. Woohoo The Sensei took one look at me and said, "You too fat to be Ka-RAH-tay, You make better Sumo wrestler." I insisted, and soon bowed and kowtowed with the best of the rest. I punched, kicked and screamed "Key-EYE!" like I'd been born in Poonmoontang. Karate spars were "limited contact" matches with light pads. My first was with a girl, a 100-pound green belt - one rank above beginner. I remembered the little judo guy. I was wary. Not wary enough. She teed my head like a golf ball, spun and hit my right ear with her heel - a 180 degree spin-hook kick. The cartoons are right - bluebirds really do circle your head and tweet. I later realized that she didn't dislike me personally; I simply had something she wanted. In my addled state, I feared she was coming for her trophies with a dull knife. I hoped she'd paint me with purple medicine when she finished.
