Gōjū-ryū

Gōjū-ryū (剛柔流), Japanese for "hard-soft style," is one of the main traditional Okinawan styles of karate, featuring a combination of hard and soft techniques. Both principles, hard and soft, come from the famous martial arts book used by Okinawan masters during the 19th and 20th centuries, the Bubishi (Chinese: 武備志; pinyin: Wǔbèi Zhì).Gō, which means hard, refers to closed hand techniques or straight linear attacks; jū, which means soft, refers to open hand techniques and circular movements. Gōjū-ryū incorporates both circular and linear movements into its curriculum, combining hard striking attacks such as kicks and close hand punches with softer open hand circular techniques for attacking, blocking, and controlling the opponent, including locks, grappling, takedowns and throws.

Major emphasis is given to breathing correctly in all of the katas but particularly in the Sanchin kata which is one of two core katas of this style. The second kata is called Tensho, meant to teach the student about the soft style of the system. Gōjū-ryū practices methods that include body strengthening and conditioning, its basic approach to fighting (distance, stickiness, power generation, etc.), and partner drills.

All Night Long

by: SWV

Baby, you can call on me
Anytime that you feel the need
And I'll be there in a hurry
Givin' you the best of me
And baby, you know I keep it nice and warm to satisfy
Baby, you know that I am always hot for you
And if there's any kinda love that will exemplify
My sweetie, I have got that kinda love times two
Boy, I'll do you all night long
Do you anyway you want
I will do you all night long
I wanna please you
Don't wanna tease you
You can melt in my body
And I will slowly melt onto you
Caress your face in my valley
Let me feel the sweetness of you
And baby, you know I keep it special each and every time
I never do nothin' once and never quite the same
And baby, you know if there is anything you want from me
I will supply so you can have it your way
Boy, I'll do you all night long
Do you anyway you want
I will do you all night long
I wanna please you
Don't wanna tease you
Here's the vibe, there's candlelight
As I undress for you, baby
A sip of wine, we take our time
Then I undress you too
I look at you, you look at me
And then we both embrace
And then we just let nature take it's place
Boy, I'll do you all night long
Do you anyway you want
I will do you all night long
I wanna please you
Don't wanna tease you
Do you anyway, any kinda way
Do it anyway you want
Do you anyway, any kinda way
Do it with you all night long
Do you anyway, any kinda way
Do it anyway you want
I wanna please you
Don't wanna tease you
Do you anyway, any kinda way
Do it anyway you want
Do you anyway, any kinda way
Do it to you all night long
Do you anyway, any kinda way
Do it anyway you want
I wanna please you
Don't wanna tease you
All night, all night long
Do you anyway you want
Hey, yeah yeah
