KENPO 101 –

The 3 Stages of learning –

Embryonic: You know nothing about karate and are just beginning to learn the basic steps involved in techniques and forms.

Mechanical: You understand the mechanics of running techniques, but not necessarily the flow between techniques and you can't react instinctively to an attack.

Spontaneous: You understand both the mechanics of running techniques and how they flow together. You properly react to an attack without thinking.

Torque –

Twisting and rotating action used to position your body and muscles to work at maximum efficiency.
