A person who is said to be proficient in the arts is like a fool. Because of his foolishness in concerning himself with just one thing, he thinks of nothing else and thus becomes proficient. - Hagarkure
I found out that Mas Oyama and Bruce LEe both knew Tai Chi
That should mean sumthin, right?
That could be the reason they were so good, right?
I mean if tai chi didn't really helped them developed large amounts of inner energy, then it defenetly helped them with self confidence...right?
"Be alert. Be alive in the moment. Don’t imagine anyone who comes and asks you to ‘push’ or ‘spar’ will keep to a format, or even stay barehanded" my ba gua teacher !!
Mas oyama stydied TaiKiKen - the hsing i derivative style of Kenichi Sawarai (sp) - Famous for alot of karateka going there to have their ass kicked! I am not sure that he studied too extensivley but a few of his students did.
I believe that there are some elements of Hsing i in Kyokushinkai.
They also practiced some basic tai chi there - but there main focus was Fighting and Hsing I.
Bruce Lee studied the Wu style of tai chi chuan as i understand it - but only from a health point of view when he was learning Wing Chun from Ip Man. I dont think he learnt the combat aspects of the art - He was a taoist so tai chi is fairly closley related to this spiritual disapline.

3. If people don't resist the abuses of others, they will have no one to resist the abuses of themselves, and tyranny will prevail.
