Re: Anyone do Chinese swordmanship?

My wrist is mostly healed by now since I began studying the two-handed sabre (Shuangshoudao). It seems that Miaodao is not really an accurate term for what I'm learning, as it's really a catch-all for all two-handed weapons from roughly Katana to short spear-length (and walking sticks, umbrellas etc.). As such, there are no forms, just a lot of foundation training and applying the Neigong from my unarmed training. We are concurrently studying with another master for a month, whose approach is quite different and possibly more badarse. His power is crazy.
