2024-03-0419 minWildcatdojo ConversationsWe Talk Jump,.Jutte and More - J Words on the Menu TodayLandyn, Sensei Jackie and I enter Dec with a letter episode. As the title says - we talk about words that begin with the letter "J". The conversations jumps all over the place. Quick correction from Hanshi Malanoski. I say the word "jutte" incorrectly. It should be said with 2 syllables (Jut-te). I hope I don't hurt anyone's eardrums and I appreciate your understanding. Also, thanks for listening Hanshi!!One place we revisit is the concept of wabi sabi.

2023-01-3018 minWildcatdojo ConversationsIf Our Karate is Perfect - An Old Saying DiscussedIt is so difficult to pick which type of episode is our favorite. We love them all. But today, with just the basic crew of Sensei Jackie, Landyn, myself and another old karate adage we manage to have fun and learn (two favorite things!). Please listen and send feedback. We love your opinions. I have a quick correction. Somewhere in all the talking I said that another karate saying was 'Repetition Beats Intensity' but the actual karate saying is "Consistency Beats Intensity." And we covered that topic back in March. Here is the link:https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/10255747
