taekwondomom Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I am interested in learning bo. Currently, I'm learning Tae Kwon Do--I'm a brown belt--and our school does not teach weapons.Are there any regional or national workshops where a martial artist could go to get some intensive training (a weekend or week) to give some beginner background in something like bo? Or do I need to find a Okinawan Karate school and take classes on a more regular basis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sohan Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Pat McCarthy puts on some excellent workshops around the country. He came to our dojo last fall and gave some great bo instruction. It's Okinawan karate-do, and some seminars are for advanced students, but perhaps it might be of some interest to you. I'm sure you're welcome to attend if you ask the hosting school's sensei. Here is his website:http://www.society.webcentral.com.au/Our seminar was Atlanta in 2005 if you look up the pictures. Good luck!With respect,Sohan "If I cannot become one of extraordinary accomplishment, I will not walk the earth."
