Guro Dan Inosanto; a poor snapshot, because I didn’t take very many pictures<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Cristyn and I got back last night from a weekend road trip to Syracuse, where we attended a martial arts seminar with Dan Inosanto<\/a>. It was the first vacation we’ve taken in a while.<\/p>\n

My vacation schema for as long as I can remember is to take along a laptop and some books and to fill in-between time with philosophy. I’m not sure I can remember a vacation as an adult that didn’t have at least some of that. But not this time.<\/p>\n

Instead, my head was filled with punches, kicks, sumbrada, trapping, and hubad lubud. There was definitely more going on than I could follow, but I had things to do and learn. Cristyn has done a lot of JKD, and so grokked more of the barehand material than I did. Also, in addition to Guro Inosanto, there were a lot of high level practitioners in the room who were happy to help out.<\/p>\n

There was also fascinating history and storytelling, literal sitting at the feet of the master<\/em> stuff. This included the quotable aphorism: “If I teach you, you will forget. If you discover it, you will not forget.”<\/p>\n

The event was organized by Kevin Seaman<\/a> and Tai Kai Jui Jitsu<\/a>. Thanks to them and the other attendees for making it a great weekend.<\/p>\n

I don’t have a bucket list, but if I did Doing hubad with Dan Inosanto<\/strong> would be on it. And it would be checked off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
