Linear and Circular Martial Arts Movements and Merry Christmas 2011

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@BUST0BIWAN for a punch or grab yes K Man but for a knife attack I would be worried about grabbing the wrist unless I am in a perfect position body wise to do so. Good question. I prefer to slip in past the knife if I could. Thanks for watching.

[VickThorrable]

A very detailed, nicely explained video ! I like how u went in detail and explained about the movements and how we should pay attention at the trajectory of the potential danger coming at us. I did try to pay close attention at the 8 movements u demonstrated but i have a vague feeling i will not get them all right: 1 - linear, 2 - linear, 3 - circular, 4 - linear, 5 - linear, 6 - circular, 7 - circular, 8 - circular :D. Sorry to be late with commenting btw, Christmas was busy :D ! Ty for sharing

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@VickThorrable Vick you are too good to me and I appreciate it very much thank you for watching my videos and providing good points.

[blacksilkblacksilk]

Went right to my favorites. Gave me tons of food for thought and experimentation.

Dividing attacks in just two categories is not new, and I know that for years. But seeing you actually DO it right in front of my eyes clicked some switches in my brain. It was a little bit like hearing this stuff for the first time. Thanks very much. This is a very valuable clip.

Imtook the liberty to download it so as to have it available in any case,

Merry Christmas Rick! Thank you for thinking of us and wish you and your family an awesome new year. I agree with your thoughts on many different styles but they share similar body movements. Nice video and thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

[DTGtaihojutsu]

[Susanoo58]

Ah, another great video! Merry Christmas to you and all your family!

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@Susanoo58 Thank you Dan so much for the support for my account. I have you mentioned in my cast of thousands I typed out for my shout out for those who have supported me in the description of my video. Merry Christmas to you and your family too.

[Greatbear1982]

Thank you for the shout out Sensei Rick. I totally agree that all arts have the same basis and Body Movement. I feel it is extremely important that we all remember that I hope that realization will disperse some of the politics. Merry Christmas Sensei!

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@Greatbear1982 you are very welcome Joel Sensei good luck with your account. I am glad you see the similarities like me on all of the arts. Merry Christmas brother.

[vegdevil]

[vegdevil]

@DTGtaihojutsu Happy holidays, Rick.. ;)

[spartajc]

Great video, Richard! Very interesting concepts. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family!

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@spartajc thank you so much brother and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.

[Loyal2law]

Love this! I was already learning some of the arts w/ the points you stated, knowing the linear & circular movements, & combining them in such a way to see how they feel, w/c is why I do them waaaaaayyyyyy too slow, lol! Merry Christmas to you & your family also =D!

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@Loyal2law Jay your skill level is extraordinary and you are doing so well in the arts. I learn so much from you . Merry Christmas my friend and to your family as well. 

[Loyal2law]

@DTGtaihojutsu It is me who should thank you. W/o you, I wouldn't even be part of the martial circle *bow* ='3

[smirkdancer]

you're a good man and a great martial artist man. awesome video and subject.

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@smirkdancer Thank you so much Sensei Geer that means a lot to me coming from you .

[o0oNaturalOneo0o]

Excellent video and Happy Holidays to you. congrats on 2 years!

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@o0oNaturalOneo0o Thank you my friend and your kind words. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

[Harpmaker44]

Happy holidays to your and yours Rick! And the same wishes to those positive people that view your channel. *bow*

To the haters out there and those that like to focus on the negative things in life all I have to say to them is Bah Humbug! LOL!

Your videos are always so thought-provoking Rick, Great stuff! Think of each M.A. body movement as a musical note. There are only 88 keys on a piano, but from those come unlimited variations of music. It's all in the note combinations and rhythms.

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@Harpmaker44 Thank you Don I am so glad I met you I love the comment you made that there are only 88 keys on a piano yet so many note combinations and rhythms what an amazing analogy to the unlimited amount of techniques which can come from one. Merry Christmas my friend.

[ronin954]

Nice.. ! very nice!.. For me u have a good explanation about liner and circular movement or attack and blocking. "I believe all martial come from one source" If you continue to believe what u believe now. U will move one step to the source. Not only the liner and circular movement BUT this also can use for this "Where is your speed come from?"

Why have to many martial art name? Find the source!!! See you there man...! ...... Thank you. U should meditate for your believe!.

(bow*)

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@alexmaria188 Very well said my friend. I am glad you said "I believe all martial come from one source" I more or less believe the same thing.Thank you for your points, watching and comment.

[1pathseeker]

Firstly happy Christmas brother. the reason i watch your videos is their always from the heart, have thought behind them & it shows, your arts neutral & a gentleman.

Trained in many arts, some linear some circular some everything revolved around 45 degrees I've also found to get to the way they want you to move involves some or all of the others. The human body only moves so many way, finding the most practical in any given situation is what counts & not where it comes from. Cheers.

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@1pathseeker Thanks Mark for your points and seeing what I was trying to show. The kind words were very nice thank you. Merry Christmas to you and your family brother. Thanks again for the comment , watching and points. 

[rctrue]

merry xmas bro. you look like your getting cut up. have you been lifting with that monster still? that guy is strong as heck.

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@rctrue Merry Christmas to you too Rich . I am working out with the monster 5 days a week and have been doing so for the last year , yes he is strong as heck. He is getting nervous since I am starting to catch up strength wise LOL. As for me getting cut Rich maybe from the knife I am using in this video LOL. Still a bit chubby. I have the workout down I am just super bad with sweets and my diet. This new year I have to add the proper diet with working out. I am a chocoholic addicted to chocolate

[ErKa44]

Hi Rick, i would love to see some more partner videos of yours.

I mean, maybe you can show the knife disarm that you meant, so i can have a better understanding of it.

In my Taekwondo school we always learned knife disarm by slapping the hand with the weapon, and i always figured its just nonsense.

You too have a nice holiday season and its no problem if you take your time with new videos :)

[DTGtaihojutsu]

@ErKa44 Actually I have a video of my daughter and I doing one of the arm controls . It is posted now but I will send you the actual video link via P.M . I am sure your Tae Kwon Do technique has merit to it but I just prefer controlling the arm so the guy/girl cannot come in for another swing. Thanks for watching.
