Tim,
Do you incorporate any of these types of exercises in your Shen Wu program? What do you think the benefits are of plyometrics and pilates? Have you ever done these and would you be willing to do them naked?

We do have some plyometric exercises we practice in class, as part of the conditioning. I think it is important to practice various explosive movements to build that type of power (have to be careful though). I have read Pilates books and some of the popular one's by modern teachers. I like his concept of the mind controlling the movement and his attention to the center. I'm not inclined to pull up my lower abs as much as some recommend though.

Would I do them naked? That depends. I might if you are female and hot. But it will cost extra.
