Toi Chi Sun

 Toi Chi Sun is a form of self-defense, which has its roots in three Oriental countries:  Korea, China, and Vietnam.  It uses Korean technique of kick (front, side, and back) and hand (knife, hook, etc.).  It also uses the exercise technique of China, where control is a prime factor.  Finally, it uses the surprise and attack technique of Vietnam.
 To Chi Sun teaches that Karate does not have to be shown publically to be achieved.  It is not taught, so that a person can break boards.  It is taught, so that a person can defend himself against any opponent.
 I have been studying this form for approx. 5 years.  It is done through concentration.  The moves are based in the sub-conscious, and are transferred to the conscious during an attack.  Adrenalin is pumped into the muscles, and strength is achieved.  This strength is continued for about six hours, at which time, I start to lose the strength.
 Proponents of this form are:  Moja Rone--San Francisco Karate Expert and Author, Baghavid Gita--Indian Philosopher, Lawrence Southerland--Karate instructor in Anderson, S. C., and other people regarding to Oriental Arts.
 It all comes down to one idea.  Toi Chi Sun is mind over body.  The same idea can be used to stand pain, cold, hot, strain, stress, and anxiety.  This form is known in Vietnam as Toi Chi Lin Da Shau.
