RE: Martial Concepts: Principles of Footwork
You bet! In reference to the "jumping", I was referring to an actual jump of a full body, not strictly the foot it self... Namaste :)

I see. We don't do any jumping motions in FMA. The closest analogies I've seen are drop steps from other arts, Jack Dempsey's trigger step and Bruce Lee's push-off for his famous straight lead. It's not something we explicitly do in training...but it's something I'm learning to cultivate anyway.
