Awesome San Diego Red Zone Knife Defense Workshop

We trained for nearly three hours today it was an awesome introduction to Jerry’s Red Zone Knife Defense material. In this workshop we went over unarmed verse the knife and dealt with someone trying to shank you. Prior to this workshop I had already trained knife defense in the Traditional Arts of Tang Soo Do and Aikido but I had done the most extensive amount of training in unarmed verse knife with Trent Suzuki a 4th degree black belt in the Filipino martial arts and at the time I was training with him a named expert in Hock Hockiem’s system in fact I even dug out my old Congress of American Knife Fighters training blade for this workshop. I still highly value the training I did with Trent and in the traditional arts and fell there was much value gained through those training experiences. The material Jerry presented and taught us today is however in my opinion the best knife training I’ve done to date. For those of you who missed out on this workshop we’ll be having Jerry back again soon stay tuned and don’t miss out on the next one.

Having trained extensively in Korean martial arts I found this article of intrest. Although through my own research I don’t agree with everything stated in this article the author does remain relatively objective clearing up many commonly believed myths created about Tae Kwon Do’s orgins. This was originally published in the book: Thomas A. Green, and Joseph R. Svinth (EDs.), Martial Arts in the Modern World. Westport: Praeger, 2003.
