Dear Master Jalilzadeh, I was studying the video you uploaded about Horayad Keyeto.

In the last part you are performing it from horaima rato stance, am I right?
In the final position the chest seems to be slightly turned, quite 0 degree (or left shoulder toward 12 hour) and the arms goes in the same direction apparently. Left hand toward hour 12 and right hand toward hour 3.
Does the chino made in this position have a name or it is still called "chino" generically?

Thank you so much!

Dear Master and dear friends, there's one thing I have always wished to know but never had the possibility to ask.
Our Kung Fu is called Kung Fu To'a, and once I have heard it was an anagram of "tao".Is it true?
What is the origin of the term "to'a"?

I know that this should be the meaning:

Kung: wisdom and knowledge
Fu: the way, art and knowledge of the art
To'a: Knowledge of the body and dominion of the spirit, union of body and mind.

So Kung fu to'a should mean the knowledge of the way for the growth of the body, mind and spirit.
"To'a" is used also to show respect.
Is all this correct?

I really wish to know everything if possible.
Thank you so much in advance.

To'a!

Hello my friend, all you said is correct. But Kung fu toa more precisely that means: the way of exploring yourself or discover yourself! But according to the master Jalilzadeh real name is kung fu TO'A and writing TAO on Otayma it was an eror. but the thinking and philosophy of Yaroummeh was deeply influenced by philosophy of TAO

Dear Patrizia, you are right, there are couple of kicks from Horeima Rato in that video clip.
If you look at the Horeima Rato clip, you will see that Chino is like you said. The left arm id top of left the leg and the right arm is top of the right leg. On 90 degrees position.

Dear Jamshid, thank you for the answer. This remember me of the saying I was taught associated with it: "If you know yourself you will know your God. Discover yourself!".
I know Yaroumeh has been influenced by the Tao philosophy when he was sent to study martial art in a country of the east.
I hope to don't bother you too much if I ask you if you know where the term comes from. Is "To'a" an iranian word? Does it have any letteral meaning?

dear master and friend,
i have a curiosity of over 20 year.
all stiles of kung fu are based or insipired by animals or similar.
our old master said it was the style of the tiger, so it is true that we did have -shirt made in iran whit a tiger and written to a kung fu to'a.
is it true all this?

Tank you so much at all.
