Re: Is It Missing In Everybody's Aikido?

Erick,

I really don't know how to describe how to approach intent from a physical model. I suspect my intent moves my fascia in some way that is instantly detectible by a person who is touching me, and unless they have excellent training they generally get influenced by what they feel. That's the best guess I can make. But developing IT to a level that is so palpible and real in so short of a time is now a reality. I can't meet you in a physical explanation. Meet me physically for real. You can feel what I can do and I'll introduce you to Dan. Then you can describe how what Dan did is like an airplane and it will have some chance of being helpful. Right now, I think it is nothing more than a distraction.

Rob
