Sensei Marlon:
As I have written to you via e-mail in hopes that I have helped answer some of your questions but with this question, as in the e-mail...I personally feel that a martial artists should start at one point in his/hers career to work from the inside out. Majority of the arts teaches one the physical aspects of the arts, and when they become a black belt, they are left with just "time." Well, if it's only "time" then I suggest that with that time...one should start working on the inside, ie; developing their internal strength, learning humility, doing things for others that gives them joy, etc. Then this would make a complete martial artists. I would be more then happy to assists you if you wish, just contact me via e-mail.
Cheers,
Grandmaster Kuoha

In this aspect of the martial arts, we in The Chinese Kara-Ho Kempo Karate System have always learned from Professor Chow, first the meaning of Kata or Forms and he would always tell me that if it doesn't work...then it needs to go, but in katas or forms...his meaning was they are a series of fighting moves or techniques, so when all our katas were made with Professor, he would develop it as such, with little or no wasted movements. If you disect the movements into 4-8 strikes, you will see a series of techniques attacking or countering an opponent. Then when all the techniques were developed to his and mine satisfaction, then they were put together, and smoothed over to look uniformity.

Sensei Jamey: As I trained with you last Friday...it was good to see you again and you did quite well for not being here too much, recently. Too bad your regular job keeps you from making more classes. I was impressed with all of you and how you folks were able to communicate both body and spirit in the techniques battling 6-10 opponents at once...and I look forward when you all could move like Sensei John, (by the way, are you going to Ixtapa, Mexico for his wedding in June?) Sensei Ka'imi or Shihan Mendoza with them...and after Friday night instructor's class, the light is at the end of the tunnel and that will soon be accomplished. When you can defeat that many opponents and within 2.5 seconds having them all laying at your feet...then you are doing extremely well. Don't forget what I told you all that night on how to acheive these goals utilizing Ki Principles. Hopefully you can make it more during the week as I know it is a long drive for you and with the gas prices...yuck! Our Benz had a quarter tank of gas left and I went to the gas station and put $45., and when it only barely brought it up to 3/4, I nearly gasped. Boy that's riduculous.dianhsuhe said:
Sensei Doc is planning to purchase another gas station down here this year sometime so that would be good and I can get discount on my gas. I am still trying to work on him with giving Kara-Ho Students discount on purchasing gas from his station, like $.05 off each gallon would surely help. What you save in a week, could possibly pay for at least another trip down here to train.
See ya later,

I believe it is officially "Master" Bill Chun Jr.
Who will be conducting this event? Is it Hanshi Seavey and company or someone else?

It's known that Master Bill Chun Jr. is the successor to his father's system of Go ShinJitsu Kai. If his father, Bill Chun Sr., was "Grandmaster," doesn't this mean that Master Bill Chun Jr. is actually Grandmaster Bill Chun Jr.?...

I'm pretty excited about this one.

Hey Matt, Jesse, Marlon..and all..
I saw Ueno Sensei swing a sword in January in Atlantic City..I still get goosebumps everytime I think about it.
Definitely catch this one.
I will be there with as many students as possible. I've been pupming this one up ever since I heard about it. (What is the minimum age?)

CTKempo -- hey Todd,
I'll tell you, that demonstration in Atlantic City was awesome. I have snaps of it on my cell phone still.As for the age thing. I will write something brief for everyone and call you personally for details. Because of the duration of the day we think 12 is the youngest. If you have someone who can handle it then fine. Now for the legalities. They must have a chaperone for 12-17. Now this chaperone could be the parents staying in the sweet hotel we have were the seminar is, or they need to write a chaperones name on the Application kindof like a field trip and that person is responsible.. Oh by the way, you kicked some butt at the tournament - my boys ribs are still hurting.
