Martial Art Training Tips: Welcome!

Welcome to our Training Tips section!

We will be aiming to add one new Tip each month, starting August 2002, for your benefit. The numbering system represents the month in front and then the year, e.g. 08/02 is August 2002. Please note that these tips are not meant to replace a proper instructor, and should be viewed at your own discretion. We cannot accept any responsibility for incorrect training or improper duplication, but we do use these tips safely in our own regular training.

Having said all of the above, we are confident that you will find the tips both interesting and positive, and hope that you will have fun trying them out!

If you feel like giving us feedback on the tips, please do so at jlim@jlim.net; we welcome all constructive feedback (especially the positive ones). Again, if you have any training tips of your own, do send us the details (less than one A4 page copy and not more than 5 digital photos). If printed, we will give the appropriate creative credit due.

While some of the tips may seem basic to some, do remember that all advanced techniques depend ABSOLUTELY on the basics.

Yours sincerely,

GM Julian S. Lim.
