Re: A pin is not a pin...
Ok Johnny 5.. First in class last night it was cool to see that light go on. But for the Input only the ones that have had that blinding flash can know what the hell you are talking about. To give more about the blinding flash. You can be told something over and over but you just do not pick it up.When you do that is the blinding flash the obvious is that you have been told over and over.. ( I GET IT) "If you bring this to a body level, then it makes sense that if you wish to control the attacker, you must first own the weapon. Pinning is a way to own the weapon, so you can control it and the attack." Just like Amylong said, but now my young Kenpo brother what is the weapon? Is it the grab kick finger elbow punch, or the attacker? What Do you fight,the attack or the attacker? I want to say one more thing be for I go. I have this friend he is one of the best martial arts I know, He said "We train to gain control of ourselves so we can control our attacker. This allows us to control the situation" Welcome to Kenpo my friend
