Art of Snow Shoveling part 2

by | Enshin Lifestyle

In this second part of martial arts and snow shoveling, we look at movement efficiency in relation to fascia.  Fascia is utilized in Enshin especially in the future at advanced levels.  Fascia is avascular (doesn’t require oxygen) and has a tensile strength far greater than any muscle alone.  This gives heightened sensitivity and proprioception as well as vector force.  Moving in relation to the fascial network is what makes Sabaki aesthetically beautiful and powerful at the same time.
