DKW Reunion Course 18th December 2005

Some of the ‘highlights’ from the recent DKW Reunion Course (18th December 2005).

Ian Paterson and Julia Turley

“Well, there’s no ‘arm in it”, says Ian Paterson in an attempt to see how many directions Julia Turley’s arm can go during Tanto-dori-no-kata. Julia Turley 4th Dan, of the Rei-Wa-Ryu, rejoins the 'Wado' ranks for the day for a spot of nostalgia - However, I think she is now regretting it!

Ian Hunter 6th Dan and Gordon Hoare 5th Dan

Gordon Hoare (5th Dan) Tashi ‘enjoying’ the pleasure of losing the sensitivity of one of his appendages. Maybe this is through Ian Hunter (6th Dan) Renshi’s insistence that it CAN bend backwards, if you really wanted it to.

George Beet 1st Dan and Ian Riley 2nd Dan

“Once you have thrown your opponent over your shoulder continuously in numerous directions, and bounced him on the floor as many times as you can. Then proceed to drag him around the dojo like in the film, Troy, however, without the use of a chariot.”
