What determines a sophisticated basic? It is single in action but dual in purpose, on one level this is true but let's expand on this.
What determines a remedial basic technique from an advanced technique?
A basic technique for instance in yellow belt is made of basically three (actions) with each basic addressing one dimension with its use.
When you take a basic technique and alter its use to work within three dimensions you have now taken that technology (technique) to an advanced level.
The Basic itself stays constant along with all concepts and principles.
Advanced usage is when your mind can relate to the change of dimensions thus making the basic function on any plane and or direction. This includes the entire body moving about these planes of action.
Your ability to intercept unseen targets along your path of action and make instant changes in your lines or orbits at will is another means of sophisticating your action.
This advancement of Dimensional use is carried forward through each belt level.
This goes for you the defender and the Attacker as each carry the same dimensions.
As you recognize this within yourself you must recognize this within the Attacker.
Kenpo's use of physical communication is no different than sophisticated verbal communication.
