Late notice:

Austin Kenpo Karate (not my school) is hosting a Gil Hibben seminar this Saturday, October 11th. The morning seminar will be Kenpo Techniques and the afternoon will be Knive Throwing.

Sounds like lots of fun.

If interested follow the link to Sifu Jeff Schroeder's website.

[Michael Billings]

you wonder why I keep a low profile?

 

[Michael Billings]

I initially made this post without any printed reference in front of me, and inadvertently mis-spelled Mr. Hibben's last name. I apologize if this was disconcerting for anyone. No insult or slight was intended, after all, I have four of his knives.

We realize that there are a lot of great events that center around EPAK. We all want to get the word out to our fellow Kenpoists. We are asking that all event announcements be kept to this sticky. Any other event announcements made in the EPAK Forum, will be summarily deleted. Thank You.

To make it an even better weekend, I just wanted to send out a quick reminder to anyone who might still be interested in attending.

For more information on the 2003 Fall Kenpo Clinic, please feel free to check out our camp flyer at the following link-

http://www.unitedparkerskenpo.com/Whiteseminar.html

I merged the "2003 Fall Kenpo Clinic featuring Professor Bob White" under this Sticky as per EPAK Forum guidelines. I am leaving it in Kenpo General as that Forum is a little more lax about events being double posted.

Fellow Kenpoists,

I would like to wish all of you the very best this holiday season!

To continue with our excellant schedule of Kenpo instructors this 2003/ 2004 year, I would like to invite all of you to the 2004 New Year's Bash Featuring Master of the Arts, Mr. Richard "Huk" Planas!

The 2004 New Year's Bash will be held Friday, January 9th through Saturday, January 10th, 2004 at the University of Pittsburgh.

Mr. Richard "Huk" Planas is a 9th Degree Black Belt in the Ed Parker's Kenpo System. Known as the "Instructor's Instructor", Mr. Planas teaches the "why's" of Kenpo, not just the "how's" based on the rules and principles of motion. Though his expertise is mainly in Kenpo, he has studied many other arts including Judo, Tai Chi, Kung Fu, Shotokan, Silat and the Filipino arts.

Join the UPK in welcoming Mr. Planas to the University of Pittsburgh for the first time. This is one event you do not want to miss. See you on the mat!

For more information, please contact Joshua Ryer at-
412-759-9710 Or e-mail at- [email protected]

You can also visit the UPK Website at-

Again, I wish you all well and a good journey!

Professor Tommy Burks (my very own teacher) is coming to Austin for a seminar on January 10, 2004. It is a rare opportunity to train with a truely great Kenpoist who was one of Mr. Parker's personal students. He is a wizard with the double clubs and knows how to get the most out of what you bring to the table as a Martial Artist of any style.

The seminar will be at my school and I will post more information regarding times and costs if anyone is interested. Hope to see you Texas Kenpo guys there!

Respectfully,
-Michael Billings

See Mr. Ryer's post, two above. Mr. Planas will be in Pittsburg next weekend!

Greetings Fellow Martial Artists!

I hope this e-mail finds you, your family, and your students safe and doing well.

I would just like to send out a brief invitation to everyone for our 2004 Winter Workshop featuring Professor Zach Whitson on Friday, Feb. 6th and Saturday, Feb. 7th at the University of Pittsburgh.

The event will begin on Friday evening from 6pm to 9pm with a Meet and Greet session and then a Mini-Seminar covering some basic concepts and principles of Pekiti-Tirsia, a sophisticated kali and knife system.

Then on Saturday from 1pm to 6pm, Professor Whitson will build on his innovative Counterpoint teachings. Counterpoint emphasizes the "what if" phase of your self-defense techniques and how to graft from one technique to the next.

Don't miss out on this excellent opportunity to welcome Mr. Whitson back to Pittsburgh and learn more in the never-ending Kenpo system!

For further information on the 2004 Winter Workshop, please check out the UPK Website at- www.unitedparkerskenpo.com Or e-mail the UPK at- [email protected].

For further information on Professor Zach Whitson, please check out his new website at-
