SUNDAY 23rd OCTOBER 2005
GOJU RYU SEMINAR
BIRMINGHAM UK
Organised by Terry Brown (www.kgka.co.uk)

I'd like to thank to Terry Brown for inviting me to his seminar and being open minded.

After short introduction I took three volunteers through the process of generating a Double Hand Grappling kata. The pictures below record the results of that process. After this myself and Ian Alexander gave a quick demonstration of a Double Hand Grappling match (which Ian won) and then there was a quick question and answer session. All in all I was pleased with how well things went.

but for the purposes of the seminar I allowed it.
