Martial Arts Techniques

Soft Fist

Sense of Sight vs. Sense of Feel

Touch is the first sense. It never turns off. It is awareness of
ourselves and the world around us. Technique that "feels"
good is usually correct. Action should be earnest, sincere,
thoughtful, cautious and deliberate. "Feeling" training
reduces tension
