You Really Want to Live in Feudal Japan - The Hazards of Life in
the Sengoku Jidai
As a serious martial artist, I spend my time around people who
devote huge chunks of their lives to the martial arts. Many of these
people have dove right into the deep and life-changing journey that
is the progress towards mastery. Many of these same people are also
deeply interested in the history and the exciting legends that surround
the lives of the great martial artists of the past. I am quite conversant

The
Fluid Motion Of The Snake Lends Itself To Kung Fu

I moved into Kung Fu styles, snake was the first one I picked up,
because of its similarities to jiu jutsu. Like jiu jutsu, snake
style kung fu is all about transmitting core body strength from
