Modern Arnis International Summer Camp 2005
June 16 - 19, 2005 (Thurday - Sunday)
Brevard College, Brevard, North Carolina

Hosted by Dee Childress and Dan Anderson
Instructor line up:
Senior Master Roland Dantes (Phillipines) - Datu Shishir Inocalla - Datu Dieter Knuttel (Germany) - Master At Arms Bram Frank - Guro Robert Quinn - Senior Master Dan Anderson
Special Guest Instructors:
Senseis Doug Perry & Phillip Jerome - Shorin Ryu
Special Guest:
Robert W. Smith - noted martial arts author and authority on Chinese
martial arts.

Cost:
$295 includes food and lodging at Brevard College (note: food and board staying at a hotel would cost at least this much. Camp fee includes training, food and board and camp t-shirt.)
$195 for commuter students (someone living in the area not staying at the college)
$200 spouse not training but staying with someone who is.
(activites have been arranged for spouses while training is occuring)

Registration, orientation, dinner, and training session on Thursday night.
7 training sessions each on both Friday and Saturday.
Special training session on Sunday.

Special guest instructors Doug Perry and Phillip Jerome will be going over the bo (6 foot long staff). Practitioners of Modern Arnis will readily see how the bo relates to the 12 angles of attack and flow of Modern Arnis.

Modern Arnis instructors will cover topics such as MA basics, sinawali boxing, classical styles within Modern Arnis, tapi-tapi, reversal techniques, Modern Arnis blade applications, and much, much more.

This camp will show the richness and diversity of application that is in the art of Modern Arnis. This is going to be a very exciting camp. Aside from the Modern Arnis instructors, the instruction provided by Senseis Perry and Jerome will show us how to formulate our own application of the Filipino staff art, sibat. A note here: Sensei Doug Perry is one of the few karate practitioners mentioned in Robert W. Smith's most recent book, Martial Musings.

Words fail to convey what a special honor it is to have Mr. Smith guest at our event. His literary influence on the martial arts in America has long been underrated. He has been a driving force in the early national formation of judo organizations as well as having written the first books on internal martial arts in the English language. I will have more details forthcoming as to when he'll be there as I get them.

A pdf file will available for download from my website, www.danandersonkarate.com within a few days. I will be mailing hard copy flyers as well. If you have any questions, you can email me at the above website or at [email protected]. I will be happy to answer all inquiries.

Yours,
Dan Anderson, co-host
 
Robert Quinn is a former New Englander who relocated to the Atlanta, Georgia area at the behest of Remy Presas. He holds a 7th dan in American Karate, 5th degree under Remy Presas, and a 4th degree black under Ed Parker. He's been very non-political over the years and has agreed to my request to be on the teaching staff at this camp.

Yours,
Dan Anderson
 
Hi All,

Just to let you know the camp is shaping up nicely. The link to the pdf flyer is up on my website.

I've had queries about one point and that is "If I don't get my deposit in, will I still be able to attend?" The answer is yes. The deposit is to reserve your space and give you first availability to a two person dorm room If we sell out of the two person dorms, we will slot you in a four person dorm room so it will avail you to send in a deposit. Two months to go.

Yours,
Dan Anderson

sorry for the double post however I thought of a question.

Concerning the staff material. Will the four foot staff work (Jo) or must it be the 6 ft staff (Bo). I'm trying to figure out how to get one out there on the plane.

Just talked to Senior Master Roland Dantes to confirm his flight. He's looking forward to the camp.

In addition to the world class instructional line up, our special guest is going to be reknown martial author Robert W. Smith. This is going to be special so don't forget to register soon.

Yours,
Dan Anderson

PS - Remember room and board are included in the camp cost!!!

Sounds like it's going to be an awesome summer camp. I'm hoping I'll be able to make it too.

Sir,

I just downloaded your flyer. Doug Perry is not Doug Pierre. I thought it was a typo. Sorry. :hammer: :asian:
 
You're right, it is Doug Perry BUT my man has called and talked to Doug Pierre and I think he's going to be there as well. Yes, it IS going to be a good camp and I hope you attend!

Yours,
Dan Anderson

Do you have any sort of teaching schedule laid out?

Thursday the 16th is Youth day for our maintenance base (at my work) and I had signed my kids up to attend. I was planning on helping out as well. So I'd like to know if Thursday starts mid day or has an evening session or something? I might be able to arrange to make it out there for the evening.

I'm still planning on trying to make it out there.

Thanks

I rarely get time to check out anything on line lately much less MT. I've lost the flyer that SM Dan sent me.

Somethings screwed up on computer because I keep getting errors and it won't download into my computer. Can't even read it on line for that matter.

Dan could you resend me the flyer via email or hard copy, I can't locate it on my computer and I don't remember receving a hard copy. But in an earlier post I thank you for sending me the flyer. I just can't remember how it was sent and were it might be? :idunno:

I've been hit to many times with a stick, my memorys short which is why I take notes :)

I'm still hoping to make it there, but my wife's got s short memory as well, somehow she can't remember we already talked about this. :rolleyes:

Hi All!

Just a little over a week until the festivities begin. You can still send in your entry or you can show up at the door and pay & play. We're guaranteeing a great time for all!

Yours,
Dan Anderson
 
Good luck with your event this weekend. I know how hard it is to put on events like this, especially with it being Fathers Day weekend.

:cheers:
