My brother and i trained with him a very long time ago, when Bruce Lee was still alive! I agree completely with your comments with how the training and gradings are so different (easier) now. But, as with all people Alan had his faults. We moved on after an inappropriate incident at a major competition held in Derby back in the early 70's and lost touch with his movements. kind regards 15 January 2009 2009 Tournaments Team Isle Of Man

Belt grades were never given out at tournaments like gifts, dan grades were always worked and fought for really hard. As far as training methods are concerned, we I can certainly remember some mad exercises in Discipline and etiquette were certainly more These days some instructors worry about members leaving too much, and therefore modify their teaching methods accordingly. Sensei Alan Rushby sadly missed probably the best ever sensei to date. Shukokai Karate 1 January 2009 |
