at 6th rank i began to learn these techniques, i am very interested in the way some schools teach things differently and how different some of the material is. all of our forms (which are a mixture of tang soo do and shotokan forms but more emphasis on tang soo do) place emphasis on c-stepping and hip movement, AND pace of the forms going from fast to slow.
as many videos as i watched it seems to be rare that these things are practiced in this manner, anybody? ill post a few vids of myself doing it when i get time just for a reference bit I'm really interested to put these techniques up against the masses! _________________ Hustle and hard work are a substitute for talent! |

When you say C-stepping, I think of a few things:
1, you use it as a change of direction, dragging the back leg in the form of a C to follow an opponent or change direction and keep you front foot forward and stay focused on your opponent...or...
2, when you walk from stance to stance, your foot moves like a C, coming in towards the foot that is planted as it passes by, and then circles back out to its normal position when it sets down.
Am I anywhere close? _________________ www.haysgym.com

I believe that #2, Brian, is dead-on. That's how most karateka's learn to "walk" the stance, or it's what I learnt and what I teach.
