TenTigers is a jewel in the rough



My Sifu echoed the words of Ed Brown, an Isshinryu Sensei from Pennsylvania, who was well known for his jackhammer like strikes, and iron palm,(one of the few people who could do selective breaking) "I don't want to be concerned with hitting a point the size of a dime, or the time of day, or whether the moon is full,etc when I'm fighting. I just want to be able to hit you ANYWHERE, and cause damage."
So, sure we aim to develop pinpoint accuracy, and we train to strike specific points-but the idea is to learn how to generate the power, and the speed. You need the delivery system, otherwise the rest is pointless.
HA! POINTLESS! Get it? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
