Hi Ascending
Thanks for your comments- the intention and energy level parts make a lot of sense.
No, not an early riser, just coming from England 
- I wasnt aware there was two six o clocks in a day until told!!
Regarding the martial arts stuff- we do all sorts of energy games including just sensing without weapons but the sakki tests are very important and the hardest- you have to detect the energy of the opponents harmful intentions a split second before the strike and then roll etc out of the way. The highest level grades do it with a live blade!
Regards
Rich
