I think that about sums that up. :-) Had an absolutely fabulous time this weekend. It was good to finally put some faces to names and meet some really great people. Learning some great technique on the side didn't hurt, either. Thanks to Master West for hosting such a great event, and to all the instructors for the material I'm still trying to absorb, and to the new friends we managed to make. See ya at the next one.

The event began Friday afternoon with the kick-punch guyz doing their normal pre-event workout. These folks just can't seem to get enough, so they start early to make sure they receive just the correct amount of weekend punishment. Segments over the weekend covered Striking Techniques (Master Mac), Grabbing Your Behind (Master Instructor Propst), ohh wait, I think that was really supposed to be Grabs from Behind... The Pen as a Weapon (Master Geoff "Call me Jay Leno" Booth), Palm Striking (Gm Timmerman), Advanced Wrist Techniques (Gm West), Ground Techniques (Master Lyons), Closing Distance/Attacking (Master Instructor Dr. Tavassoli), Kicking for Self-Defense (Gm Hodder), Cane Techniques (Master Hilland), Choke Defense (Master Instructor Borucki), Pressure Points (Wayne "Mean Old Man" Watkins), Speed Takedowns (Master Instructor "and Martial Arts Novice" Mangum) [you had to be there], Military Techniques (Gm West), Carry Techniques (Gm West), Kick Defense and Gm West's Black Belt HKD class. I also did some knife stuff. If I left someone out, sorry, not intentional. Just too few brain cells firing this morning... Great to see some old (and I do mean old) friends again and make some new ones (e.g. the "LA Boyz", Chris, Vic, etc, etc, [see aforementioned brain cell thing again]). I seem to recall that the upcoming August event will be in September... now I'm really confused. Time for a nap...
