He there met Mas Oyama and trained with him until he was ready to test for black belt. There was a falling out and Mas Oyama refused to give Peter Urban a black belt. Urban returned to the states and opened the first Goju Ryu school patterned initially after Kyokushin Kai, but later changed the forms and techniques a great deal. Peter Urban, an American reshaped his art and made himself 10th dan. He created a large network that has survived his death. He left quite a few 10th dans to carry on his work. Thus, Goju Ryu, an Asian inspired art was uniquely American. Sid ________________________________________________________________________ AOL now offers free email to everyone.

He had a great bit on karate, where he beat his hands in class to look like his feet. Then he walked down the street with his hands in his pockets, when attacked he would pull his hands out of his pockets. If the karate chop missed, the smell would kill them. My reply: Yeah, I remember that routine! My favorite part was where he practiced to spin around his hands in his pockets and elbow the guy in the head. When he actually got to try it, his attacker was a midget. Hmm. It's better when Bill tells it! :) Dakin --__--__-- Message: 4 From: "Gladewater SooBahkDo" To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Date: Thu, 05 Jul 2007 13:43:07 -0500 Subject: [The_Dojang] Pro Cage Fights Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Hey Joe I have a guy that is fighting in Battle Cage360 but wants to go pro.

He had the right to carry a weapon, a handgun in his case, to protect himself because he was special, different... His point was that 'normal' people did not need to protect themselves. Since they were not special, different... no one wanted to hurt them. But since he was so well known he had rights that others did not and should not have. Since hearing that interview with my own ears my opinion of him has greatly changed.
