    My X was in plastics and worked with Lexan. He used to make me little gifts out of the scraps. We are still friends and I still have most of them. He never did utensils, but even a pair of chopsticks would have been nice.

    The motion starts much higher up. The part where your leg is up bumps their hip taking thier root (balance, then you lean on them with your elbows and drop straight down. You then shift forward to rol them on thier side. The back leg steps left into a horse stance and you anchor them in place as you china thier arm out of thier socket.

    It's the posture inbetween the takedown, and the cage right before what could best be described as a standing arm bar.

    That is one use for it anyway.

    In systems that are used in mass fights, like riots or large gang fights where blunt and bladed weapons are involved it allows you to take an opponent down, without getting stuck on the ground yourself.

    As a training tool, it trains the skeletal alignment needed to properly generate power on those angles.

    Kung-Fu sounds like a great way to kill stress and get in shape without weights. Are you an instructor?

    I haven't been to either. I mostly hang around Westmont, Aurora, or back in the old neighborhood of Elmwood Park.

    There is nothing really spiritual about Tai Chi, it is a combat art. I am not sure how it got mixed up with spirituality, except maybe when the Taoist priests started doing it, but they adopted it into thier martial practices. It's actually a village style martial art more than anything.

    I do a small version of yang style. It has a number of prepatory exercises, a 37 posture form and the pushands two man drills. My specialty is actually a Kung Fu style called tai tzu Chnag Chuan. It is the military style Tai Chi evolved from.
