Thank you Masato,anyone who is interested more than welcome to come join us on an experience of a lifetime. Truly there is more to life than fighting someone behind the school parking lot with 30 cheering spectators to prove you are the toughest kid on the block. The Songshan mountains and the Shaolin temple and all its beautify is a once in a life time experience.

We have been to Shaolin twice and will move there in February[we live in Shenzhen southern china now]. Last trip down there I wanted to work on the Qin Na and fighting application from one of the forms. The first day we go up into the mountains and My teacher,[not small by Chinese standards] asks me to cross hands and work an application. The technique is a traditional one where you begin in a right foot forward horse stance and cross your right arms at the wrist. From here you grab and pull your opponent towards you and punch him in the ribs with your rear hand.{rooting is the ability to have a solid stable stance, which is used in maintaining your footing in a fight as well as preventing takedowns and delivering power in your strikes and throws”this is relevant to the story”}.Now I have a decently developed root from practicing standing in one stance for 30 to 40 minutes a time per day, and having won push hands competitions before. So when he asked me to pull him towards me ,I tried and he didn’t budge. When it was his turn he could easily pull me out of my stance. he mentioned he developed this ability by training in the Shaolin version of the stone lock.

Love the stone lock vid!

Hey man, you live in Shenzhen? Have you been to the newly built Shaolin temple in Hong Kong yet? I haven't been, but just wondering if it's just a tourist trap. If they have stone lock demos there, I'll be interested in going.

[wiz cool c]

no i havent been Diet Butcher. do you live in HK?

[Masato]

Sincerely hope you come back here and post sometimes man. - I understand you're probably just doing your marketing rounds, and this place ain't got the biggest traffic flow, but I would really love to do some Q & A with you.

I dreamed of the kung-fu life when I was younger, and have always been quite enchanted with it.

Have tons of questions.

[wiz cool c]

Normal questions I would be happy to answer. But last time as soon as I started a topic ,I have a guy saying how one on one he would kick any Shaolin monks ass. If it is going to be like that, why waste my time, life is too short to bother with that stuff. In fact I will simply ignore any type of tough guy talk altogether

- I would love to go to China someday.
