Re: Documentary
I see you're are sorted for a copy Reg. I plan to watch it this week end, so I hope it's good! Regards Kate Williams Don't leave it too late Kate, it says its only there for another 3 days. I thought it was a good piece of TV. The Suzuki sections are frustratingly short, the first is the footage of...

Re: New Otsuka dvd
I received a copy and took a quick look through. Its an interview with Jiro and Kazutaka Otsuka, with films of several demonstrations by the founder, some colour some black and white but nothing earlier than about 1970. The part which is probably most interesting are the extracts from a professional...
Tachidori
Thought I'd start a new thread on the subject. Arturo mentioned about whether Tatsuo Suzuki made any sword defense demonstrations. I don't think he did any in the early period of his time in the UK, and I think one reason for this is that he didn't have a partner who could use the sword. If the part...

Re: Sensei H.Takagi
Bob - I think you may have mis-typed the dates for his university days? Interesting point for Takagi sensei is he didn't start training Wado until he went to the dental college, he wasn't a member of any of the karate clubs at Nihon university. So his karate career began a little later than is typic...

Re: JKF Wadokai membership
I think I'll just stick to training shep Hi Shep I do understand you're sentiments. I posted up the information as I know it is not altogether clear how to go about applying for membership, but I also wanted to provide some context - it isn't an impenetrable bureaucracy to join if people are intere...

JKF Wadokai membership
Rather than loose this subject in the 'funny' thread I thought it worth posting this up separately as it seems to be a subject of confusion / fascination. Firstly to pick up on a comment I made and Bob repeated in relation to registration of dan grades. Over the years, various people have held the p...
Re: A funny
Bob,
No one could accuse you of being succinct but I think you got there in the end!
Lets hope people start signing up for the seminar now.

Re: A funny
[Well if you can't figure it out then I don't know what to say. No wonder some people continue to get away with what they do. We shall see. I wonder if any WadoKai group has squad training that day. Hmmm. Unnecessary even if it were true? Really? And how is this a real shame ? The course organizer ...
