Getting sweaty together
New York's indian summer was in full swing and it was absolutely beautiful. It just made you want to get out and enjoy the sunshine. Already the 70 degree days were a little nippy...Charlotte had grown up on an island, after all, but she was enjoying the sunshine, and even more so, enjoying the protected garden behind the embassy.

She was there with a purpose, in her work out clothes and ear phones blaring away as she stretched. Sengai had gently but firmly insisted they begin her self defense training...She didn't want to hurt anyone...but she wanted to be hurt even less so she was there and ready for whatever he'd throw at her.

"I believe I've heard of Ben and Jerry, probably from Angelo, it's an ice cream, right?"

He uses his fingers to point at an area along the arm.

This area is particularly useful to use against the enemy because of the nerves there. Say the enemy tries to throw a punch. By grabbing this area you can weaken the impact, twist, and use their own momentum to bring them to the ground. If they are holding a weapon, it can also numb the nerve endings in the fingers, making it difficult to hold onto anything."

"See, you're learning!"

She traced her own hand over the spot, pressing a little, not hard enough to make the nerve spasm.

"Okay but...and I'm *not* trying to be difficult here...but how the hell am I supposed to aim to grab someone's arm when their fist is coming at my face at a million miles an hour..."

She sighed in frustration. "I'm hopeless...Maybe I could just get a stun gun....yeah?"

He smiles at her encouragement.

"That's where tai chi comes in. It allows you to better understand the direction your opponent will be heading, regardless of speed."

He puts a hand on her shoulder reassuringly. "You're not hopeless, you're just beginning. It's not something you're going to understand after only a few minutes. If you want a stun gun, I won't stop, but it's not likely to stop the more formidable enemies you may have out there."

He thinks a moment. "Would you like me to demonstrate one of the more standard katas?"

"You going to buy me a drink first...?" He wasn't going to get that.

"Sure. I really appreciate all this...I just wish that just *once* I could be a stunning natural at something...you know..? No work, no practice, just an expert from the get go."

"Well you've displayed astounding patience with my constant questions to seemingly every trivial thing I do not understand. I always worry I'm going to annoy someone, or portray myself as ignorant. I never get that feeling with you, your sincerity is very genuine, that's something you can be proud of."

It was starting to get a little warm so Sengai, completely lacking in boy-girl common-sense, takes his shirt off.

"Alright, this is one of the introductory sequence of movements." He takes his time, making sure she sees them clearly.

Oh she was seeing him clearly. Very clearly. So clearly her jaw dropped an inch as she stared at the expanse of skin.

"uh....... I think that's all I can do today..." damn did it just get hot because her cheeks were flaming... And not from embarrassment.

"Oh? Well if you're certain, then that's all right with me. "He slips the shirt back on. "Don't let the first day frustrate you. Bit by bit you'll pick up on things, I'm certain of it."
