Re: Saito Sensei & the no-hands throw
Hmm, well, I know people who are just as balanced on one leg as on two. But they are less **stable**...two legs provide greater stability...not necessarily better balance.
Stability:
The state or quality of being stable, especially:
Resistance to change, deterioration, or displacement.
Constancy of character or purpose; steadfastness.
Reliability; dependability.
Balance:
A state of bodily equilibrium: thrown off balance by a gust of wind.
The ability to maintain bodily equilibrium: Gymnasts must have good balance.
Best,
Ron
