Hi Master Ken, im from the UK too. Based in Scotland, just down the road from Clair.

[Master Ken]

Do you train under Miles???

[Yossarian]

No but I have trained with him a bit in the past. We were both in the same org at one point but both our schools left.

[Master Ken]

You talking about WTSDA, me also, so who do you train with now?

[Yossarian]

Yeah the WTSDA. My school has been without an org for the last couple of years so we are looking to join the EMTF(seems like a great org).

[claireg31]

morning everyone!
small world really isn't it!

claire

[Master Ken]

That is who I am with, I cannot stop talking about them, if you want any mor einfo onthe EMTF drop me a line....

[Master Ken]

So who is your instructor or do you run your own school??

Regards

Ken

[Yossarian]

My instructor is Michelle Raisborough(formerly De- Vry), im the assistant instructor at our small club and have been looking after it a lot while she has been on detachment with the RAF.

Ive spoken to Warren De- Vry about the EMTF and my instructor has been in touch with Miles. It seems perfect for us, competitions, seminars and masters in the area with little interferance in the curriculum. We are going to a comp in London next month and may get to meet some of the EMTF masters. Any info you could pass onto me would be great.

[Master Ken]

No Probs with the info, I myself with some of my students are going to the UK champs so we may even get a chance to meet up for a chat.

I am the guy with no hair LOL... that should narrow it down a bit.

I know Master John Trudgill and Master Wayne Humphries from Wales... :)

[mini_dez]

I'm from Glasgow, Scotland. I train in Muay Thai rather than Tang Soo Do though.

BUT, your name caught my attention because the head instructor at my gym trained under the man who brought Muay Thai to the UK- Master Sken.

OOO you lot have got me excited now lol! firstly the RAF, the best (yep am ex RAF though my other half was a Rock please don't hold that against us lol). From your view at Lossie we are situated just before Leeming on the A1.

Master Sken is a legend! I've met him once but there's so many stories about him.

Only the children at our club do TSD apart from one adult, 'my' student! so this is the nearest I get to 'doing' TSD with adults.

[Master Ken]

Cool, are you trying to build up your school???

[Master Ken]

I saw Master Sken do a demo once... amazing is the only way I can descride it..

I have heard of Master John Trudgill and Master Wayne Humphries, in fact i contacted master Humphries in 2004 to give him an invite to our UK champs in Newcastle, unfortunately he could not come due to other commitments.

Another checking in. Cornwall in my case, a few from my club came up to the competition in Manchester about a year ago now (was it really that long?), if memory serves we met you on the way in :) That was our first time up to see the EMTF, we met loads of people that day including Master Hatch (I saw his name mentioned here), and we were fortunate enough to sit in for a while with KJN Salm and the assembled Masters. I was only 8th Gup or so then, so it was quite overwhelming :)

[FieldDiscipline]

Oh yeah, got distracted setting up a bite...

I'm an Englishman too. Formerly of the north, now of the south. :apv:

[Yossarian]

Hey AdamR, not seen you on MAP for a while.

[AdamR]

Yeah, the TSD chat was really thin on the ground, and I usually strayed into TKD instead and some of the 'discussions' on there had me so irritated I found it better for my sanity to stop going :)

[Yossarian]

Lol I know what you mean, this is a great TSD board.

Hello all! Another new member here. Rob James - An Instructor of Tang Soo Do in Cornwall. Great forum and glad to be part of it!

Hi Master Nessworthy. Hope all is well with you. We had no idea there was a UK Championship in Essex. We always seem to find out too late. I will see if we can manage it as we have a team entering the S-Factor world championships in just over a week. Im sure most of us would much prefer to attend a Tang Soo Do Tournament though! We are desperate to attend another EMTF event.

Hi James,

Nice to hear from you, I am very soory that you did not get the invite to the championships, I have been asking everyone to pass on their email address along with a trusted student so that information can be passed around. I have forwarded you the invitation and hope that you can make it to the champs.

Incidently I am putting our area forward for next years championships so you get a personal invite from me.

Looking forward to the challenge again even though I added aged by 15 years on the last one :o)

Viper, welcome to the forum, you will enjoy it here I'm sure!

I live in Yorkshire but come from the south so anything relating to civilisation outside Yorkshire excites me lol!

[Viper720]

Thanks for the warm welcome! I just hope i can add something useful once in a while on here and its a great way to network with other TSD practitioners. Loving it already.

Many thanks Master Nessworthy, I have just recieved the info pack and will hopefully be there! ( bank balance permitting! ) it will be great to see you there, attend another EMTF event and hopefully also compete.

Many thanks again, Yours in Moo Do.
