FEW SPACES REMAINING
BOOK ONLINE TODAY
On Saturday March 17th I’ll be hosting a full-day training seminar in Okinawa Ti the indigenous martial art of Okinawa and the foundation of all Shorin Ryu Karate styles.
The day will cover advanced aspects of martial arts including:
- Entering
- Grappling
- Disarming
With direct teachings from Okinawa straight from Motobu Ryu Udundi and the Bugeikan Dojo.
If you are a serious student of karate, kobudo, aikido or any martial art, then this one day event offers you the rare opportunity to learn about a unique and little known bujutsu of Okinawa.
Come and train in a purpose built, Japanese-styled dojo located on the Surrey/Sussex border in the UK countryside. For those travelling from afar Gatwick Airport is just a twenty-minute drive away with plenty of affordable local B&B’s in the immediate area.
Regardless of style or former experience everyone is welcome and the day will provide a thorough introduction to Okinawan Te & Ryukyu Bujutsu along with exercises to regain flexibility and restore damaged joints.
As always the weaponry and empty-hand skills of Ti are taught side-by-side so you will be able to experience a range of kobudo weapons from swords, spears and glaives to sticks, batons and flails too.
I’m making a real effort to only present material direct from Okinawa that has never been taught in the UK before, so if you are interested in knowing more about Okinawa Ti and Ryukyuan Kobudo then this really is one of the best chances you have short of travelling to Okinawa yourself.
For those new to this site, I am the ‘uchi deshi’ or (private student) to Higa Kiyohiko of the Bugeikan dojo in Okinawa. Higa sensei holds a hanshi master-grade in Motobu Ryu Udundi (the once secret Ti of Ryukyu Kings) having trained directly under its founder Uehara Seikichi.
In addition to this Higa sensei is the inheritor of the Yamane Ryu Bojutsu style of the late Kishaba Chogi and the successor of the Hanashiro Chomo branch of Shorin Ryu Karate.
Bookings are already filling up with trainees from a diverse range of martial arts including Shotokan, Goju Ryu, Aikido and others from all over the UK.
There are only a few remaining places available so either book online with Paypal or send me an urgent email to reserve your places.
£45 per head
£60 for two or more
Thank you for all the support I receive by email this really is a positive time for Okinawa Ti in the UK and I look forward to meeting some of you later in March.
