I have studied Savate from books and training tapes, and incorporated it into my JKD. Maybe if we cannot find an instructor we could train together from instructional materials. Im Steve and I'm in Lacey, just north of Olympia. I have a fully outfitted small indoor dojo and a large backyard to train in, if you're interested. Send me a PM if interested and I'll give you my e-mail addy and we can chat about it.
Do tell here if you found an instructor in the area.. Savate is something I'm very interested in. Also interested in training in Weng Chun trapping and any weapons arts (Kali/knives/swords, etc..) Praying Mantis, Aikido. I use all of this in a JKD conceptual matrix, but I am sure there's more I don't know about each art than I do know..
