Master Oyata's ORIGINAL Bo Kihon Kata.

This is the first Bo Kata that we teach. It is the first Bo Kata that I learned. We used to have little 'get-togethers' in my parent's backyard, and Greg Lindquist taught me Master Oyata's Bo Kihon, the first Bo Kata that they taught. Later Master Oyata refined my understanding of this kata and how I was to implement its movements in preparation to compete in the Weapons Fighting Division in Okinawa. I declined the 'honor' when it was pointed out to me the deaths and injuries incurred during these full contact "competitions".

Karate. The way it was meant to be taught. Not Sport. Learn from a Military Science and Tactics instructor specializing in Individual Tactical Training. There is a difference. We do Seminars worldwide. The details are on our website www.academy-of-ryukyu-kenpo.info. I enjoy teaching people who WANT to learn! With Albert Geraldi's passing, there is only Greg Lindquist and I left from the original bunch. Greg is more of a Kata guy, I'm the fighter and tactics guy. I don't teach that namby-pamby stuff that's passing itself off as Ryukyu Kempo these days.
