I know, your all probably thinking, 'Not this Hikuta crap again,'

I have trainied in Tai Chi for ten years and learned not only the physicaly but also phylosophicaly,historicaly,emotionaly and scientificaly. To put it blunt, I'm facsinated by Tai Chi and the idea of Chi.

In the past few months I have come across Hikuta. and to be honest, am quite intrigued. I see that it is highly conroversial and that there are many debates of its history and practicality. Never the less, I am still thinking of purchasing Al's DVD's on the subject and begin training myself. I would however, like to ask you lot more about it before I do.

Firstly, is there any evidence to sugest that Kuta, does orinate from Egypt? or is Leroy Crull the firthest it can be traced back?

How can slapping yourself in the chest with your hand make your strike that much faster. I don't want mathmatical equation, I won't understand them. Give it to me in laymonds terms. and both hands into the chest make kicks that much faster.

If you were confronted by a madman with a gun, surley if you strike him, the gun will still be pointing at you. It only takes a quick squeeze of the trigger to fire a bullet into your chest. Perhaps your free hand would be better off blocking or deflecting the gun held arm, instead of slapping you own chest. Yes?

Is Hikuta, really worth learning and why?

eawoodall

it is just still just the truth. you have not seen it all or learned it all.
you doubt that a martial art called by a certain name is better or better in some ways than another martial art, maybe even one you have learned.
Grow up. Do not be confused, there exist people who are happy with whatever martial art they have learned, be at peace with it.

No matter what I say or do you can only choose to trust or not.
even if you see me do things you do not believe, you still have a choice to choose to believe or not. people misunderstand some times, but you can choose whatever you feel is right for you because of the freedom to do so.

Though the studies have not been widely published, and many attempts have been made to refute them, chi has been proven to exist under labratory conditions through the use of Kirlian photography. The Kirlian camera is a very specialized piece of equipment designed to image electromagnetic radiation. Studies of the hands of Chi Kung healers and martial practitioners have proven that though everyones chi is unique, it is a complex mix of electromagnetic radiations; gamma, infrared and ultraviolet, among others. I have an excellent book on the subject, but am unable to find it at this time. If interested, I will try to find it at a later time.

i think i have some knowledge to the past of eawoodall. if you want to know it send me a private message.

shadowperson

i was looking at some of eawoodall's past posts and found this. right here it souds like he is refering to stories from the O.T. david and his mighty men, solomen, and even joeseph. not for sure though, did any else catch this?

also, eawoodall seems to be repling to someone with the username d.severn. but i cannot find any posts form d.severn. why is this? did he get baned and his posts removed? did he claim to be the real dan severn?

pappy

Which David stories do you have in mind? I doubt it was the real dansevern, probably the same way I am pappy.

eawoodall

yes it appears someone deleted the person whose posts i was replying to.

actually i was refering to information found on scholarly sources at an international university, perhaps you know that in different languages
people can be called different names because of translation or other reasons
and so someone who is mentioned in a religious work in one culture may be mentioned under a different name in public documents of a different culture.

i have never heard of whoever is calling themselves shadow**whatever, nor do they know anything about me, because they did send me a private message and it was strange and had nothing to do with me. perhaps they need a dose of reality.

shadowperson

not sure. its been a little while since i have read the old testament. i remember david having a band of mighty men. they were able to sling bows with both hands or something like that. they were few but credited were many victories. solomon was david's son and was given wisdom from god. the bible describes solomon as classifying animals {biology}. so maybe it describes other sciences as well.the last part is very similar to joseph's coat of many colors.

my biblical history is very sketchy to say the least. i will need to make time to go over the old testament and see what i can find.

HIKUTA is rubbish

Hikuta is rubbish. Take up physics and you'll understand what I'm saying. Hitting your own chest makes you hit harder? Try it. You think you can learn moves in 20 mins that
is gonna knock someone down twice your size? Haha then buy the dvd and as i said, try it. When you buy it train up for 20 mins or what ever then come see me. I'll kick you in the nuts, hit you in the throat, or if i get the chance, choke you out. Want the real edge in defending yourself? Do whatever it takes, fight like an animal... And yes bite if need be

eawoodall

with a log on name like that, you must be trying to spam war.

obvious to anyone you do not value hikuta.

it appears you do not have much to say about its history.

why did you post here again?

well i have multiple college degrees, and physics is one of the multiple (concentrations-majors) of my degrees, or a subarea specialization of physics.

maybe you think a self-defense class can teach someone to defend themselves but not a 'real' martial art in 20 minutes? after learning some 'moves' you think people are going to let you harm them? ha ha. you do not understand, people learn to defend themselves because they are tired of people who think they can beat them up. the attitude they have toward losers such as yourself, who are bullys, more than makes up for not the best combat skills, because when you face someone who is fed up with silly people like you, they dont need training, they will kick your backside because they are not gonna put up with it any more. once again. i do not teach. i do not get money from martial arts. i have no dvds, no videos. no school. i dont get a penny. i am above your accusations, because nothing is what i get out of explaining.

you presume alot to think you can kick anyone, much less get near anyones neck. much less choke someone. you should learn to keep your grandoise dreams to yourself, because in most places threatening is also a crime. i do sometime wear a badge and gun at work.

by the way hikuta is better than any animal fights. faster, smarter.
the old test for hikuta was dropped in a pit with two killer attack dogs. you must kill both before they can even scratch you, or you don't pass. or problably survive. but natural body movement with control, and forethought is quite effective. perhaps if you choose to learn, one day you can change and be nice, and learn hikuta.

p.s.
in hikuta you do not hit your own chest.i can see how someone who is not knowing what is going on, might think that is what happens, but it is not.

eawoodall

no you are incorrect.

this was not about david, or joseph, or solomen, perhaps you should reread the O.T.

look for the one who defeated the five armies, with men of his own household, and a few friends, and all he wanted was food enough to feed his young men after the battle. he did not ask for a place to bury his dead. perhaps none of the people with him died. that is right a force of men about the size of the '300' everyone is so enamored of, but they won the war against 5 armies and none of them died! that is fighting. not losing.

it was he who came from the city that the martial art those men used to win a war against 5 armies without losing a man is named for.
