R. "Joe" Manley

[jks9199]

My instructor, Joe Manley, passed away earlier this month. Joe was a pioneer in the Bando System, one of the original students of Dr. Gyi, and a legend on the tournament floor in the 60s. He truly lived the Bando maxim that Bando teaches you life, and his lessons in so many areas beyond martial arts were a great influence on me. He taught us to focus on the little things, and that mastery of the basics is the only way to truly master anything.
