Reviewing my
notes I made in 2005 following Sherman Harrill’s death
and were then placed in my Sherm-Pedia, I always found the principles that Sherman shared, the most important thing I learned from him. My
notes are 15 pages long. This is one of the principles that I understood.
1. “You can always Punch Your Own Palm” june 10, 1995.
Working on Wansu applications, Harrill
Sensei made a point, without looking you can always punch your own palm. He
then used this principle to strike into an arm, where you only had to place
your hand on the other side, and 100% of the time you’d strike the arm, aiming
for the hand……
The 10 years
when I attended Sherman’s clinics continually I was seeing kata applications
that were only shared once. This is an example of how Sherman shared.
