BAK FU PAI'S IRON PALM COCONUT
BREAK FORMULA
From our friends at THE SEA OF CHI
There are many legends surrounding this 600 year old jow, it was in fact created
by Fung Doe Duk the chief abbot of the Shaolin Temple (Sil lum), who later
developed the White Tiger Kung Fu System. Fung Doe Duk was the first
Grandmaster (Jung Shee) of Bak Fu Pai.
During his training he focused on developing iron palms -- by breaking coconuts.
He used his training as an herbalist to research Chinese herbs that could be used
to toughen his hands, strengthen his bones, and yet leave no calluses. After
years of trial and error, this master herbalist and healer finally developed a
unique dit da jow -- what we commonly refer to today as the Coconut Break
formula.
As you may know Iron Palm training involves rigorous conditioning of the hands
as well as meditation, fighting forms, and striking techniques. To prevent injury
during the training process this unique herbal hit medicine is applied and rubbed
into the hands - before, during and after each training session.
Without its use there is a greater likelihood that you will experience the dangers
of repetitive striking such as bruised and/or broken bones, or deformity of the
hands, or possible nerve damage. If left unchecked the result can be arthritis,
and a general loss of hand dexterity.
However, with the proper application of hit medicine -- namely the Coconut Break
formula which contains herbs that synergistically work together preventing
bruising, strengthening the bones and circulating the blood and chi - you can
train the Iron Palm without fear or pain.
BAK FU PAI'S WHITE TIGER KUNG FU COCONUT BREAK can be purchased from
(the Sea of Chi website) for $75.00. If you'd like to have your own supply of this
amazing formula, we will provide the herbs and complete step-by-step
instructions that will enable you to make over 2 gallons of this jow. Click here for

Our personal experience with this jow is that it is the best all around jow for Iron
Palm training and Hand Conditioning. We've tried them all, and prefer this
formula. We hope you'll give it a try.
If you have any questions, or would prefer to talk to us about this jow, please give
us a call.

Is there really a movement to kill the art of kicking? There seems to be. People
who have read my writing previously know I never try to tell a person what
their Martial Arts experience should be, that’s a personal decision each of us
can only make on our own. We all know what we want out of the Martial Arts
when our interest began. Some want to win trophies, some want to fight in the
Octagon, some just want to be able to defend themselves and their families,
others are perfectly content sitting in a corner meditating as a candle flickers
away. Some love breaking objects, maybe even all the above or even Zen
Archery. Whatever you seek, no one can tell you, if it is right or wrong. Now…
saying that – The movement to kill kicking bothers me.
“The Wing Chun system says that kicking to the head of an opponent makes as
much sense as punching his foot.”
Sounds to me like something a person that has a problem kicking would say.
The Mixed Martial Arts movement which is gaining in popularity has resulted in
many Martial Artists neglecting or even devaluing the skill of kicking. I’ve
heard many Martial Artists say kicking is overrated, after watching a few too
many UFC’s or Vale Tudo matches, where no one ever seems to land a real
good kick above the knees. The top participants in these matches are
supremely skilled in this type of one on one environment, and it leads to
people thinking ground fighting is the way to go. The Ultimate Art; the ultimate
way to fight. It’s been proven, right? A veteran of 20 years in a stand up Martial
Art gets beaten inside a minute, by a guy who took 1 year of a grappling art –
that proves it right? The answer is yes – in that environment – in a bar or a
parking lot at the mall, might be a different story.
In a street fight or an attack where lives are on the line, eye gauging, groin
shots and even biting are all legal and encouraged. What if your opponent
brings 3 friends with him or her, you’ll need to hit, and hit hard enough to stop
them in their tracks. The best way to do that is by clean, hard, effective kicks
that maim on impact, sending attackers away with a nice little parting gift. Sure
you should run when the odds are against you, but what if you can’t? I heard
somewhere that our legs are three times stronger than our arms, not to
mention, to punch someone you need to surpass kicking range to do it.
Therefore, landing a kick is much better than landing a punch, but if an
opponent is already in punching or grappling range, we might need to punch,
trap or grapple with them and also use kicks to keep the others at bay.
The point is; if a Martial Artist prepares to fight a certain way, they better be
sure the contest goes down that way. If not… How can anyone be sure that a
street fight won’t happen? I guess we’d better be ready.
I decided to put Hwang Jang-Lee, perhaps the greatest film kicker of all time
on the cover, and also to share a story I read.
About Hwang Jang-Lee: During his tour of duty as a martial arts instructor in
Vietnam he was challenged by a South Vietnamese knife expert. The challenge
was over 30 seconds later. His opponent lay dead, killed by a well executed
round kick to the head by Hwang.

The Best of the Championship Martial Arts Tournament has always been special to me, since it’s the tournament where I competed for the first time and after attending the 9th annual tournament a couple of weeks ago, I was once again reminded how great the tournament is. The Green School of Martial Arts puts on a show that is only surpassed by the next annual tournament, with schools coming to East Orange from far and wide to attend and compete.
I posted a bunch of pics in the photo gallery, be sure to check it out. www.umojaphoto.com was on hand, and they put together a tremendous photo CD that can be purchased from their site.
I also had a chance to talk to the people from the: Muslims Athletes United Int'l Inc. and I laud them for their efforts in what seems like a very worthwhile effort, they need our support. For more on what they do, use the contact information below.
