[@stephenfairlie5804]

That was a very good pattern sorry form. 😅

[@demise2515]

its funny no one knows that guy was the one who helped me with my step side kick

[@davester1970]

That man taught me how to accelerate my moves to add more power and snap to my form that enables me to score better at tournaments and tastings.

[@bombdotcom2168]

Oh dude that's awesome

[@roboticd]

He was at our school recently and did the same with me!

[@rocketman767]

By the time you get 9th degree (dan) you are over 70 years old! How tough can you be at that age? Put them in the ring with ufc fighters and let's see what they can do.

[@VirgilDavis]

It's not about fighting, it's about contributing and empowering. You wouldn't understand.

[@waldi1339]

Sorry, but there are imho no (active) ufc-fighters over 70.

[@yeoldcap]

Complete bs! What validity in a self defence scenario do these poor dance moves mean? Absolute bs!

[@treblemaker1854]

Ok bud 🙄

[@bombdotcom2168]

How many times do we gotta say it- Forms are there to display the technique- Nobody fights this way

[@stephenfairlie5804]

Performed really well to be honest.

[@Yourplugg2x]

Martial arts forms display fighting moves in different seequence. With the mindset you have right now , any martial art in history from karate to kung fu is rendered useless.
