Non Interference Anecdote | UCB Program

This practical experience of Non-Interference came to mind just as I was finishing off my last blog post. Experiences such as this served me as ‘convincers’ that this method is preferable to letting my ‘big brain’ lead the development. It’s quite a superficial example, but for me, it was a real validation of Non-Interference versus the urge to try and 'fix' things.When

Another student training journal. My response "Relax vs Release: Well done. To perceive the difference between relax and release is an important step. The physical conditioning required of this work is deep and profound. Quite bitter, but the sweet is woth it. Appreciate the "More human than human..." Blade Runner reference." #mindbody #meditation #martialart #fitness

Another student training journal entry. My response "You have done the work and now you get some insight into the words I use and their new meaning. Using normal words but increasing the nuance and depth based on esoteric experiences is the goal. That's the mental development that helps move you along the path. Basics, basics, basics. Thanks for your post." #mindbody #meditation #martialart

Making a record of some of the changes I mentioned on Sunday.Leg Cavities Although have been able to experience continuous change over time with the method, there was one area where I've had difficulty properly getting my head around and that was ‘how to use the leg cavities’.

First week... | UCB Program

Pranam (Greetings) everyone. Since joining the program last Friday by the grace of Sifu, I looked around a bit through the cirriculum to kind of get the lay-of-the-land so to speak. It's incredible to hear (and read) Sifu explaining with precise terminology concepts that my previous Teacher(s) described rather vaguely if they even hinted at them at all. I went to the very

The Middle Path

“If the string is too loose, it doesn’t play, and if too tight, it will break”
-Zen Buddhist Proverb (paraphrased)
(unknown source, associated with Sona)

Through my #Aikido life, I have often been met with some extremes in approach of training aikido; from the all martial approaches to the all soft-flow approaches

Requirements for discovering your intrinsic quiet. #meditation #internal #martialart #mindbody

Stillness | UCB Program

I am making this training manual public. Resistance requires a free mind. A free mind requires a specific kind of quiet. This quiet is not imposed by your iron will to suppress uncooperative thoughts. This natural quiet arises from within. I call this process 'Discovering Your Intrinsic Quiet'. Requirements for success are:Establish the pelvic stretchFeel the response in the
