In general, it is my experience that Okinawan styles (Goju Ryu, Shorin Ryu, Uechi Ryu, Ryuei Ryu) focus far more on bunkai then Japanese styles...
Woah, slow down there. Take the time to clearly and calmly state what you want! Now, in case anyone in the future sees your post, I'm going to...
Unless he has MRSA or a super severe staph infection (I had one that I had a large chunk of my left arm cut out because of (okay, most of the I&D...
For the record, I've been quite happy with the Dell Precision line - I personally still use a M4500 (Dual booting Windows 10 Pro and Ubuntu 16.04...
I am going to have to disagree with you there. While I will use a school's website or social media page to gather a little bit of information...
