Kao Shi

Tomorrow morning will mark the first ever Kao Shi class.  I'm excited and curious to see how this will look.  I know from a distant vantage point that it will likely look pretty much the same.  

A group of like minded individuals pursuing mastery.

A set list of requirements intended to help get us there.

But I'm also excited for the different opportunities that a smaller group might allow.  I see alot of potential and I think there are many things we can do a little bit different as a smaller group.

I'll end this entry, and start my year, by publicy sharing with you my personal requirements.

  • Hand Form - Da Mu Hsing
  • Weapon Form - Stick (personal form)
  • Weapon fight choreography with Toudai Vogt.
  • Repetition log for all forms (mostly school forms but also a couple of mine that I find valuable.  Marked with asterisk).  The intent is to ensure everything is, at a bare minimum, being maintained.  Min 1 per week, each.
    • Lao Gar
    • 18 Temple Motions
    • Long
    • Hung
    • Stick
    • Broadsword
    • Butterfly Swords
    • Spear
    • Kwan Dao*
    • Dou Ti* (hand form)
    • Fan*
    • Awakening the Dragon
  • Once a month baking/cooking with Emma and Nathan.
  • Meditation - Min 5 times per week
  • Stretching - yoga body hip opening stretching.  Min 5 times per week
