A reader from Connecticut asked if it would be more precise / proper to call Statue of the Crane by the name Stature of the Crane. What is the general consensus? This thread at Martialtalk seemed to nail it down, but I guess it’s still open to debate. Feel free to chime in.

I had a great opportunity last weekend (1/19-1/20) to go see Professor Kimo at Professor Tom Ingargiola’s school on Long Island. I had the good fortune of having ‘KenpoJoe’ Rebelo accompany me for the very long ride. I was able to meet Tatsuji the K-1 fighter who was in town to train with Professor Kimo and Professor I. The seminar was great – it’s not often you get to learn from a student of Wang Shu Jin, and Professor Kimo was great as always. Much of the most fun was ‘around’ the seminar – meeting Keith Tubman and Kim Kleiman of Valley Shore Martial Arts, exploring the ideas through a variety of martial arts with Professor Kimo back at the hotel, delving deep into the various facets of kempo with Joe Rebelo.

Thanks to youtube, video of Shushi No Kon Sho is avaliable. I’ve made a page for it, and will add a ‘clearer’ video once I find it. I’ve got one somewhere….
