Journal philosophy #1

Hello! Inspired by some of my school brothers, I will share notes from my journals, starting at the beginning. They will be no-frills, and without commentary.

Levels of Combat
1. Killing Everyone
2. Fighting the Men
3. Hostages
4. Getting what you want without them ever knowing

Levels of Teaching
1. Form - Hands here, feet there. This/that relaxed
2. Technique - springs/visualization
3. Principle - Fascia all moving, body as one
4. Philosophy - One part moves, all parts move / isn't that interesting

  3. Levels of Teaching. Yeah... Seems a lot of teaching is focused on forms and techniques. And why not? This has immediate application. And is as good a place to start as any.

    I wonder how many "forms and application teachers" are equipped to guide their students into discovering the principles? Kinda hearkens to that old question, "How do you find a good teacher?"

    Glad to hear you'll be posting your notes! I look forward to reading!
