Official MAP Meet 2012

What happened to that poll btw?

And when's the deadline to pay? Grappling Dummy is at sea I think and I'm broke for a couple weeks

 

Ross Mounteney (Late for Dinner)

Ross's background is in freestyle wrestling and chinese martial arts (and rugby :' ).
He started wrestling/rugby when he 15 and has also intermittently been training in judo in recent years. He trained in Butokukan Karate for 3 years when he finished high school and later trained in Wing Chun (1986-1991 Black Sash). In 1991 he started to train with Master Chan Wah in Lung Ying Fu Hok Pai which is a family style that combines 3 southern Chinese martial arts (Hung Gar, Choy Li Fut and Sil Lum) and received his black sash. He was also taught the short hand arts of Lung Ying and Bak Mei while training with Master Chan.

I am going to look at some of the ways we engage and close with an opponent in the chinese arts. We will then progress to clinching and some takedowns (both CMA and wrestling) that can be applied in the clinch. I'm going to try and show some drills we use to move from compliant to resistant training to show how the techniques can be applied in a contest or altercation. What we do will vary with how people get on at each stage of the seminar but hopefully I can show some practical appications that people can carry over into their own training.

 

A decision was made to give the money to children's charities, Barnardo's is one suggestion.

If anyone has any other suggestions then please post them here, once you have paid to confirm your place.

The sooner people pay the better. The good folk who have agreed to give up their time for free to teach could do with an indication of numbers so they can plan in more detail. So far we have lots of people who say they are going but not many who are willing to pay up

Come on folks, the event is on, the Instructor's are ready, what are you waiting for?

Robert Agar-Hutton
Robert has been learning martial arts since 1970 and is still learning. He is a Tai Chi and Karate instructor.

I'll be teaching some combat applications of Tai Chi. These are moves that are simple to learn and simple (though very effective) to apply. Almost anyone from any martial arts background should be able to find something of interest in the session.

 

There is now a sticky under General Discussion just for details of the meet. Any serious questions can be asked there and it's your reference for all details in one place, but please keep it banter free

Linkydink.
