Date: 2005-05-10 02:02 pm (UTC)Roger Zelazny practiced and taught Aikido. Following the example of his instructor he studied a hard karate style for several years in order to learn how to kick and punch effectively. This made him a better uke and thusly his training partners better Aikidoists.
The more you train in one art, the more you find different arts have more in common. Effective and powerful kicks and punches have a lot more to do with body placement and balance shifts than muscle power.
