Anyone tried practicing their martial art during an OBE? If so, what was it like?
I practice Tai Chi in real life and aim to try it during an OBE and see what difference there is.

I can't say I've consciously practiced my martial art while in the non-physical... but I have done so on many occasions while in dream awareness.

I take Yoshinkan Aikido, and I had to quit 5 years ago due to my knees getting bad.  Well, they improved a lot and Nov 2009 I decided to get back into it.
Anyways, during those four years off... I'd find myself in the dojo quite often while I was dreaming, doing all my usual training.

I found that when I actually got back to my training I hadn't missed a beat.  It took me only one class to get back into form.

Did you practice alone in the dream?
Did you have any tuition from your teacher in the dream?
Was it identical to your real life practice or was there any variation of movements/stances?

From the ones I can remember it varied... sometimes it would be just me there practicing.
Other times it would be in a group... although, I don't believe I recognized anyone else.

Tuition?  A fee?  I think you might have the wrong word there.  :)

It was Yoshinkan Aikido.
No variations.  :)

My question in the other section, I felt it had to also go there as the environment was related to dreams for that version of the question as it would have distinct differnces between dreams and OBE's. I thought they should go in the relevant sections. I apologise as I did not know I could mix topics as such.

I've trained about 11 Years in an old style Kung-Fu named Sai Do Kuda ( Ka-Ju Shintung Family, incase anyone knows their history? )

My Master ALWAYS said that once the 4th degree Black sash is acquired, ALL training is done without the body's presence. Now, when i started class, i hadn't a clue what he was talking about, but once i got alil' history in Metaphysics and OBE Exploration type knowledge, It makes sense. He used to explain things such as " Chi Sparring " which is a spar that no physical contact is made, But you would think they were beating the crap outa each other. One of the strangest things i've ever seen demonstrated, Hands down

He does talk about meeting up and training in the spirit, But i'm yet to have any Hands-On experience in that field. I haven't been to that class in over 4 years =(...

I should contact him again, now that you remind me.

What I meant was did you experience any teaching from your teaching during the dream?

Yes, you should go back and see if you have this astral meet up. Why did you stop training with him?

Definitely.  :)
A lot of it was me just training by myself or with others though.
I did get some corrections.  :)
