Red J Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Welcome. I look forward to sharing your experiences. I had to lose my mind to come to my senses.
jukado1 Posted July 28, 2004 Author Posted July 28, 2004 Italian_guy: Jukado was Bruce Tegner's method of setting up a belt/rank system for those who just wanted to train in self-defense, Those with no interest in ether the sport or arts. Jukado is named for the three major methods used to develop this system, JU-do, KA-rate, aiki-DO, What Bruce did was take the old jiu-jitsu belt tests and modernizing the attacks, instead of a karate stepping lunge punch, the attacker throws a street sucker punch, Instead of a sword attack, you have a knife attack to defend against. Since this was for only self-defense training, there were no kata's or advanced sport techniques, good luck, train hard, train smart.Bob RosenbaumTOTAL COMMITMENT
italian_guy Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Thanks Bob. A fusion of Karate, Judo and Aikido...It sounds interesting.
aefibird Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 It sounds interesting. It does! Hope to learn more from you, Bob, about your style. "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..." The Beautiful South - The Rose of My CologneSheffield Steelers!
CloudDragon Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Welcome Bob, looking forward to getting some great information from you. I loved reading Mr. Tegner's books when I was a new martial artist, what was he like as a teacher? A Black Belt is just a white belt that don't know when to quit!
jukado1 Posted July 29, 2004 Author Posted July 29, 2004 CloudDragon: I started with Bruce in 1959, when i was just 15, And Bruce was as close to a father figure as i ever had so I'm prejudiced. Bruce as an instructor was somewhat lay back, Bruce made sure the classes were fun, and were geared to the average person, not the competition athlete, or the martial arts fanatic. There were a few of his students who trained hard, but for the most part the classes were done at an easy pace, the emphases was on learning, not working out until you couldn't breath, after class we were encouraged to stay and practice for at least one hour. At this point those who wanted to train harder could do so. good luck, train hard, train smart.Bob RosenbaumTOTAL COMMITMENT
