I have been ha lot of issues and pain with my right shoulder and hip these last couple of months and it is getting worse as time goes on. The shoulder is an issue that occurred a few years ago and gets better then comes back but this time is worse I believe. The hip issue is something that started about three months ago and has been getting worse. It is even to the point where it is painful to lie on or sleep with.
Needless to say, I have had to start modifying my Kung Fu but I Think it is suffering for it so I am looking at alternative and more permanent solutions. I have booked a doctor’s appointment but it will not be to the new year. At least it is a starting point.
On a positive note, I have been able to work on the grappling form to refine and clarify some concepts thanks to Sihing Kobe Csillag. It has been great to put some of the techniques that are branches of the form/sequence into practice. The thing I am finding is that some of these are actually easier to explain and demonstrate than they were in the past and I think that is just because my experiences with doing grappling has advance my knowledge as well. I do look forward to where we will be able to take this form as we continue to work together.
