Sanchin

Post by emattson »

During one of the discussions, we talked about the meaning of Sanchin. It's spiritual aspect is Mind, Body, and Spirit. It is also three gates: bottom part which is the legs and hips; middle part which is the torso; and upper part making the shoulders and head. A good Sanchin turn moves the entire body as a single unit.
