Well principled and looks good. You'll go far in the arts big man, Don't denounce your kicking
totally though, keep it hidden but make sure it is efficient as it is your longest weapon. Just some advise, not a dig. Kind

Hello to everyone I am practitioner of Shotokan Karate club Like the web site and agree
about finding your own way as such, don't agree that more than one style combined is better though, I think that Shotokan
can beat anything. See ya............ |

Frank, the book has been a long time coming but its nearly finished, its a work in progress so every time I feel it is near
completion seem to have the compulsion to add something else ! When its finished I will give more information on the site
of how you can purchase one of these. Take care. Kind Regards Sifu Dave C Jones |

Yes Renwaku Bujutsu Means ' Combination of Martial Arts Techniques ' The word 'Bujustu' is 'Martial arts techniques' Not to
be mistaken for jujitsu of course. Hope your training is going well, keep focused and keep your goal in sight. Kind Regards

Thanks for your comments left here, the garden city seems to be alive and well as far as martial arts go these days, with
numerous good schools there. I dont get down there very often. I grew up in Hallswall Christchurch so have some fond memories
there. Good luck to you. Best wishes Sifu Dave C jones |

Yes I did practice Chidokan Karate back in the late 70's and by the sounds of things we could have been in the same class.
I am sorry but your name doesn't ring bells for me at this stage, that was a long time ago ! I am sure we would have spent
many long hours on our knuckles doing press ups though if we were both doing Chidokan at that time. Nice to hear from you.
Good luck with your training Sifu Dave C Jones |

for your comments Colin, its nice to receive recognition of any type when you are creating something new. I am planning a
trip to Australia in 2004 and if I get the time I would like the chance to meet with you and your class. I will touch base

seeing you in 2004. Kind Regards Sifu Dave C Jones |

In response to entry from: Jillian Challis TUES - 2/11/03 12.10PM Hi Jillian In reponse
to your query Jillian, it is hard to comment about how you are feeling but I can only make a few suggestions. One is that
anything good takes time. Although you have been practicing WC for a year now, it may take a little longer to start feeling
that you have fully absorbed its depth. On the other hand if you are genuinely not enjoying what you are doing, then you are
gaining little from it. Not knowing your Sifu I can only generalise, however it is disappointing to hear his attitude in relation
to not ecouraging you to explore your art further. If you want guidance the best I can offer you is this, I personally feel
that the only person regardless of what advice you get from anyone, that can do what is right, is you. Go with your gut feeling,
learn to trust it, and do what makes you feel good about yourself. If you feel that your efforts could best be served widening
your knowledge in another style or school then you know what you must do. You have to be a little bit selfish here, within
reason of course. We have relitively short lives here so make the best of it. I am sure you will make the right decision.
Good luck. Kind regards Sifu Dave C Jones |

Hi Mr Jones can I ask you a question please My name is Jillian and I have been practicing
Wing Chun for about a year now. I dont feel like I am getting anywhere, I know the basics and think I am o.k with it all,
however it doesn't hold my interest at times, is this a sign that it may not be for me or should I just focus myself a little
more ? I do like the martial arts and want to continue, but when I suggested learning another style as well to my Sifu he
went mad and said that if I did that I would have to leave the class. Your advice would be appreciated ! Kind regards Jillian |

Hello Sifu Jones My name is Colin from Tigerstrike Karate in NSW Australia. I really like
the web site, love the words when you say that martial arts is a whole movement,and that we need to use our minds as focus
to control the movements. This is so true, and I am constantly trying to put this message across in our Dojo to the students.
I think you have really touched on something special here. Your philosophy seems common sense and you speak in a down to earth
way which is refreshing. I would welcome you to our Organisation should you ever be in the area, I would like the chance for
you to meet with me and the class and demonstrate your principles. Although your style or system isnot strictly within our
frame work of technique, I believe that we could all learn some useful principles from you and a sharing of techniques and
information is always advantageous between schools. Let me know in advance if you want a visit and I can fit this into the
class, we normally practice on Mondays and Thursdays from 7.00 to 9.30pm. My contact number from NZ will be 0061 I think then
2 4653 08985 - so 0061 2 4653 08985. Regards Sensei Colin Lee Tigerstrike Karate NSW |

did Karate?, I practiced Chidokan back in the late 70's in Auckland it is possible we may have been in the same dojo, I know
there was only a couple back then that I knew of ? Give us a bell sometime via e-mail :-) Mario |

Hi Sifu I love the web site, stumbled onto it when scanning the nz web pages for clubs just
out of interest.You must be the only person I have heard of in NZ to be so bold as to ' Go against tradition ' and create
something new, how exciting. Mind you I dont think anyone will argue with you !I am a blue belt have been practicing Shotokan
for about 2 years on and off it rather classical but is powerful.If you ever come down to christchurch I would love to have
the opportunity to train with you or receive instruction in the system. Keep up the good work, it all looks really good. Kind
