Hi Jason.
I think most of us Google ourselves now and again, if only to what others are saying about us
I agree with you, it is good to see so many people of all styles looking for real answers. It brings our arts alive. I think it also helps to bring us a bit closer as we realise that we actually have more in common than many realise – or than some like to admit sometimes
I’ve been on courses with Iain Abernethy, Rick Clark and Kevin O’Hagan were Karate, TKD and other stylists all train together regardless of styles and with absolutely no rivalry. Everybody is just there to learn together, and that is how I think it should be. I think it’s brilliant.
Sorry about getting the link wrong. I have amended the post to reflect the new website. I’m glad to here that it’s back as found some useful articles on there before.
Yes we do train at the same place (Wells Blue School), but I think we train on different days. But if we are around at the same time it would be nice to say hello.
Regards
Charlie

Hi Charlie, I stumbled across your site while doing the egotistical thing of Google-ing my name! It is really nice to see that there are so many modern martial arts exponents seeking answers to the questions that arise from performing the traditional fighting arts, most notably from the forms, whether it is the Korean ‘tul’ or Japanese ‘kata’. I found the link to a YouTube video of a pattern application demo that I performed at a tournament on one of your pages & you mentioned my web-site wasn’t working. Well it now is! However, the site address is now professionalmartialarts.co.uk (not the old fighting-spirit URL).
I also have a funny feeling that we train in the same venue, will say hello next time I see you!
Regards, Jason (Burgess), Wells Ch’ang-Hon Taekwon-Do.

Dear Mr. Wildish,
My name is Víctor López Bondía. I’m from Spain and the person behind the website http://shotokankaratedo.es
I’d like to ask for your permission to translate into Spanish your interview with Kousaku Yokota (http://bunkaijutsu.com/2011/07/interview-shihan-kousaku-yokota-8th-dan-shotokan-karate/).
Yokota Sensei is OK with it. I just translated into Spanish his interviews for “The Shotokan Way”, the “OSS – Our Shotokan Studies” Forum and “MartialLife.com”.
You are very welcome to check out my translations (http://shotokankaratedo.es/lecturas.php). As you can see, I always acknowledge both the author(s) and the source(s).
I hope you can grant permission for me to translate the interview.
All the best,
Víctor López Bondía

Hi Richard
I don’t know very much about Penkak Silat, though I here that its very practical. I’m sure that there is quite a bit of overlap.
All is very well thank you, how about you?
