Thank-you to Everyone who came & Shared.

But a special Thanks to Datu Hartman, Guro Parsons, Master Barker & Adam for making it such a great seminar. I Had a blast, made new friends & feel good that martial artists can get together & help out such a noble cause.

Thank-you & God Bless

PS. Hey Adam, i need directions to the dojo?
Can you help me out? =)

More details, please!

First I never met the late Grandmaster Remy Presas but I am sure that he would be so happy to see his dream coming true. People from all modern arnis feds, org, clubs, ext working training together for a good cause! It was cool meet Datu and all the gurus and other martial arts people there and seeing old freinds. I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as me. I enjoyed the knife drills alot.



(P.S.) MY directions where not that bad only a mile off LoL sorry but Outback was fun to. Glad to have met all you and hope to train with you guys some time soon again. :asian:

 

[Datu Tim Hartman]

I got home at 4 am, so this is my first chance to post. I want to thank everyone who supported this event. I'm glad I was able to help. What was also nice was the fact that there were several different MA groups there, maybe there is hope for us yet.

On average there was just over 20 people there. Some came late and some had to leave early.

I covered some stick and dagger, by covering the six count drill first and then moving to inserting the left hand, and then for those that were understanding I had them insert the dagger thrust with the left. You have to see it .


Tim covered some dagger stuff and then some single stick after that.

It was enjoyed by all

Or at least that is how I perceived it

 

[progressivetactics]

Your perception is good sir!

I had many positive comments from the group. Everyone from my school liked both 1/2's of the seminar, and was pleased with the attention given.

Again, my only disappointment was the lack of pain issued to Adam....oh well...

Craig Marks, the father of the Marissa Marks, the little girl we are helping, hand donw some nice Chinese Caligrahy and put it into a nice frame.

Mine reads:

Zi Gung asked, " What Constitutes the Sage?"
Confucious said, "He practices what he preaches, and then does it."

It was a very nice gesture, I like it a lot. Trying to decide where to hang it in the living room


Thanks!

[Rich Parsons]

This is myself and Enoch Carlton (* Seigi *). I was showing him how the drill we workig on could break out of it and into another drill and then back into the drill we were working on.

 

[Seigi]

Nice pic.

I Learned a great deal from the seminar & enjoyed it greatly.

I was also impressed with all the different people sharing in the art.

But, my big dissapointment Along with Mr. Barker) was the lack of pain that Adam received (more next time, please)

 

[TallAdam85]

seems like everyone wants to hurt me oh well what does not kill me will just realy hurt
