So, I live in the sticks these days. I have been interested in learning Xingyi for a while now, or at least the 5 elements, just to experience the energy. I ended up meeting a guy who teaches the three internals, though they come to him through Naishindo, a Japanese branch of IMA. His XY looked different than anything I have seen elsewhere, though my exposure is minimal to say the least.
Has anyone had experience with either the system or a practitioner? Some of the stuff I recognized, and some of it was new to me, including a type of shuddering strike and soft rather than crisp strikes. The site is www.naishindo.com. Any thoughts are welcome

They have to get better intro music. Sounds like my old Atari.

Ouch, their website hurt my eyes.
there is always a japanese variation on chinese martial arts though, so who knows?
Is there benefit to the practice? If so, then dig in!

Coconuts. Bananas. Mangos. Rice. Beans. Water. It's good.
