Training and additional practice other than in a Do-jang is always a problem, even more so when it involves a sword. Here I am in the garden – well away from the kids who are at school today. It’s supposed to be the P’alsang-se stance – to improve the balance. Unfortunately in April it’s cold, windy and often wet. Still, if that’s what it takes - I don’t mind a little pain. A tiny amount!17 April 2007
My Little Do-jang?

Just found out, having reviewed this stance (Crane Stance) this week, my arms are all wrong in this photo. The shoulder and elbow of the arm holding the sword must be parallel to the ground. The other hand should be positioned in front of your chest holding the end of the grip of the sword.
So my left arm/hand should be a bit higher and my right arm/elbow a bit lower. Need to work on this one too now. (I think?)
