Jiffy Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 Well, I'm pleased to say, I studied with a Master this weekend!!! Hanshi Tino Ceberano - 9th Dan.Okay, so he doesn't do Shotokan, he does Goju, but it's very similar and what I learned was just amazing!(for info, do google search on "Tino Ceberano". There's heaps)See pic.http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j158/jiffbox/shawn_tino.jpg The mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open.
parkerlineage Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 I'm glad everything is working out for you, karatechick!Are you the beard guy, or the other, Jiffy? (Just kidding) (Mostly) American Kenpo Karate- First Degree Black Belt"He who hesitates, meditates in a horizontal position."Ed Parker
Akaratechick Posted August 21, 2006 Author Posted August 21, 2006 nice picture,Is there anything you learned that left a lasting impression on you? I have only been to seminars with masters but got to attend a couple of Dan Inosanto seminars in the past, and I was humbled by his humility as well as his incredible patience in teaching. Not to mention that the guy is in incredible shape for his age or anyones age for that matter. "All your life you are told the things you cannot do.

Zorbasan Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 i got to go to the last inosanto seminar in adelaide (they still dont have the photos on the website grrr). it was actually my first martial arts seminar, and i loved every minute of it. i would love to go to many more but they are just so expensive. im really disappointed that i missed out on that tino ceberano seminar but it was way above budget.once my new houe is in order i hope to get out to more seminars (hrm, i seem to remember saying the same thing on a cars forum) Now you use head for something other than target.
Jiffy Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 hahaha, yeah, I'm the redhead. (Hanshi Ceberano has been training in Karate for 58 years, so I think there's only one in the photo it could be)I too trained with Dan Inosanto. This was fantastic. Ah, why the heck not, while I'm on me "ego tour", here's a photo of that too.The man was phenominal. His humility and also his experience. Just amazing.http://users.esc.net.au/~aacd/images/photos/shawn_dan.jpg The mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open.
Jiffy Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 I love seminars. The people you meet and the things you get to do, just fantastic. The mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open.
Zorbasan Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 damn slack web people at inosanto.com i want to name drop too. Now you use head for something other than target.
Jiffy Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 hehehehe.Oh, to answer the question, apart from actual techniques, here's a couple of notes I made from the seminar."Quick to learn, Quick to forget"CORE - Centre of Reserve EnergyEven a 65 year old can do a good Jodan Yoko-Geri KekomiEven a 65 year old can do 10 straight arm push ups in a row.A yawara with points is actually a "Theraputic Remedial Stick".... it will remedy any situation you get yourself into.To study Karate-Do is no longer enough, we need to research back to the roots and find the Karate-Jitsu that once was. We need to question and elevate our martial arts."Grades mean nothing. I'm a 9th Dan and yet I must bow to 10th Dans with half the experience I have. Oh Well" The mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open.
Akaratechick Posted August 22, 2006 Author Posted August 22, 2006 that's neat, thanks for sharing. "All your life you are told the things you cannot do.

Somewhere in this process, you will come face-to-face with the sudden and shocking realization that you are completely crazy. Your mind is a shrieking, gibbering madhouse on wheels." - ven. henepola gunaratana
