Have you heard of Seiki-Juku?

Anyone gonna be at the team tournament in High Wycombe next month??

 

Not me. Yeading Ladies are all indisposed this year.

Well according to Sensei, Camie's injured and Natalie's in France. And I'm flying off at 7.30 that morning to Andorra for skiing. (Wahooo!) Provided there's snow, of course.

However, there will be 2 kata teams for Wycombe and they're looking good.

 

Hey,
I just live round the corner from the Busen in Twickenham. I was thinking about training Jujitsu there rather than karate. Does anyone know much about the Jujitsu there?

Im going to go and try out a class on Wednesday so ill keep you lot posted on how it goes.

Is there anyone here that has trained Jujitsu at the Busen or associated dojos?

Thanks,
Dan

 

Some of the Karate people cross-train in Ju-Jitsu.
Me, I prefer my ears like they are...

 

They have a lot of clubs round my neck of the woods. Kingston upon Thames area.

The Busen has a sort of legendary status as well. As it is one of the very early dedicated martial arts Dojo of its time.

Sadly, I have never trained there, but I do train at an equaly "hardcore" MA haunt which used to be called the Budokan now called the Frimley martial arts center.

Still the Budokan to me.

 

Why not drop in some time - there is a genuine spirit of respect in Seiki Juku.

 

Hi
I have seen that Seiki Juku use logo of Dai Nippon Butoku Kai,
But on DNBK ther is no information about Seiki Juku is Seiki Juku a member of DBNK?

 

Interesting thread on the new DBNK here (for contect purposes):

http://www.e-budo.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30833&highlight=Dai+Nippon+Butoku+Kai&page=2

 

Very perceptive; my grading syllabus booklet (Dated Jan 2001) states "Affiliated: Sekkai Butoku-Kwai", and has some information about the history of the Dai Nippon Butoku-Kwai.

Seiki Juku students told me that Sensei Perry have exams in Hombu Kyoto?

 

Out of interest, do the Seiki-Juku enter open knockdown events? I think Ive seen some of your students in MMA style events, but I may be mistaken?

 

I don't know the answer to that; nobody I know has (but I'm only a shodan).

 

Nobody knows its weird.

 

Ive just realised I was confusing your guys with the, Daigaku Karate Kai, my mistake!

 

I don't know about them either.

 

I found this one

that's the black belt level in Seiki Juku ?

 

Well, that was obviously not full-on, was it.

 

Sure it was not full-on. I just ask if it's a level of Black Belt?
For Me it isn't

 

The "one-step" techniques performed there are part of the syllabus of required moves for black belt.

I don't know the context of the occasion to comment on the particular demo.

 

I know it's syllabus. look on this video do You see the difference in quality of moves?
