Explaining my intent. So I was working on my forms yesterday and a few follow Kung Fuers asked me why I did a move a certain way. So I explained my motive, my intent, my reason, whatever you would like to call it. As I was saying it out loud, it started to sound an awful lot like an excuse and not an intent. Well crud, my one step forward and two steps back just turned into one step forward, turn and run in the other direction. Now I am questioning all my intents.
I understand (I think) the reason for intent, but, for me, it really seems to be fluid, never the same intent twice between two reps of the same form. Even slowing a form right down still produces different results each time. Maybe it is a focus thing, maybe I am just so incredibly complex (insert haha yah right here), I don't know. It always amazes me how many layers this Kung Fu onion has, I am starting to think there is no center to it, just layer after delicious layer. And speaking of center..... that is for another blog.....
