mudstomper wrote:Hi Acid, yeah, maybe it is newer my sensi’s background was from E. London where he first started training then he added army (1ST Para) techniques in too, he took a very JKD stance (scuze the pun) and absorbed from any other style provided it could be proved to be effective, he hated “showy” moves especially if they left your guard open, having said that he was delighted when I put together multiple spinning inner, outer crescents into spinning back fist raised knee block then turn back kick, wouldn’t let me use it in sparring though (grumble, grumble). We also learnt single stick/knife techniques and heaven and earth combo’s with double stick. When I first joined it was entirely illegal, no insurance, everybody there where in trouble in one way or the other, all tokers too including the sensi (hee hee, just thought, sensi sensi) but fuck me did we learn self discipline and respect for each other and those around us. I’m interested in studying something new especially with weapon work as I seem to get on well with it, any ideas?If you want to do some no frills effective weapons work then see if Steve Tappins doing anything round your way http://www.escrimaconcepts.com/

It weren’t even The Quiz.
In fact… durr… we *cough* just forgot to pay the rent this month.
It’s now been paid, we just gotta wait for the moolah to clear in our evil hosts’ bank and we’ll be back online.Rest assured, a standing order has now been set up so we shouldn’t drop the ball in this particular way again.
Not that we care anyway.

Have a Nice Day. ;o)
