Bug form update.

Posted on June 7, 2009 by matt

Just got an email from a reader – and he says:
The posting that you just put up – “Things I didn’t even know I was looking for” is not a bug form. It is actually Northern Tiger. I learned it as a 1st Dan and loved the form. Just thought that you would like to know that the gentleman has an incorrect name for it.

Thanks for the update – that name sounds more familiar – and that makes me think that Mr. Venturino probably learned it right after it was developed and the name wasn’t finalized. Keep the updates coming!

Things I didn’t even know I was looking for.

Posted on June 6, 2009 by matt

Steve Venturino sent me a comment and in it he let me know about his site kempoman.com. He’s also putting all his material up online, and mentioned a form I hadn’t heard of: The Bug form. He’s got it on a page of black belt forms.

I can see some of the traditional ingredients. Steve gives his training background on his page, and I look forward to collaborating with him to fill in some of the blanks in the archive. While you are over checking out his page, also take a look at the Kempoman game he’s trying to create.
Thanks Steve!

Apparently ten stripes isn’t enough to keep the students flowing. Let me get my violin.
