Villari Doing Techniques and Forms

Here’s a nice video of Villari himself (in the early days, probably 1975 as a totally wild guess – *oops, further viewing makes me think ’81 or so.) doing a bunch of techniques and forms including a clear video of Hansuki  / Honsuki and 6 kata. It’s a great historical resource for those interested.

Facebook Updates

I have started updating the Facebook page attached to the site again, and have started another Facebook page and website for my tiny little  karate program that I have taken over. One of my students is trying to retire and move away, so my student Brad and I have taken over her club (to some degree). As part of this, I’ve put up a student manual and I am beginning to put up practice videos. Most will find their way here soon enough, but it’s the first time I’ve put Kempo-Jutsu videos up. This will likely lead to a new section of kempoinfo, but it will be a work in progress for a while. If you are curious, look up Martial Fitness on Facebook, or go to www.martialfitnesscapecod.net.
