Dai family Xin Yi has a number of branches. Doing a quick search on Jon and his style, I get the feeling that we're seeing something of an internecine battle about a "style" and who is the real representative of the style, and so on. Couldn't the discussion stick with "how to do these things" rather than devolve to who properly represents Master Yan and so on? Because that's the path I see this discussion ultimately leading to, if it's not cut off at the pass. And I've seen these things for too many years to not recognize the signs:

Hi Mike,

Thanks for rejoining the discussion.

I was enjoying this thread as it had a chance for me to compare other methods (Aiki, etc) with what I practice. I would rather not bring up any of the previous problems with my old teacher to contaminate this thread, so I would rather not go there, but if you are interested in talking to me about anything, you are welcome to PM me here or email me at daixinyi@gmail.com.

Now lets get back to the thread shall we.

All the best

Jon Dyer.
