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.
