Thanx Mr. Frantzis for taking the time to field questions.I scrolled the 8 I-Chaun postures and GOOD, as with John I have been wondering 8 shorter sequence or 1 long session.Iplay with it and find I am too dense to find the subtle differences.Time will correct this, Hands floating up or down naturally was good instuction,Today this morning after chatting on the phone to the Auto Repair shop on a vehicle in for repairs,{troubling news of course}, I stood still and hands horizontal feet paralell sent energy downward to drain. This just happened naturally,an application of I-Chaun just occuring on its own.I agree with Mr Fantzis’s reluctance about fighting skills with Hsing -Yi, however from attending a few seminars there is something to playing Martial Art and the {Offense-Defense}TOUCH that does exchange energy.However violence is violence and does not promote LIFE. THANX Al Ray.
