I have done many Knife Defense seminars for the Military of Columbia, Ecuador, Israel as well as the Police forces of Moscow, Russia and Eastern Europe. All of the people who attended these seminars were TRAINED people, who put their LIVES on duty. Their daily life is LIFE or DEATH.

Actually, I do not want to teach Knife Defense for ordinary people because it is extremely dangerous, I have only done if for demonstration or for show. We in Japanese say "Namaheiho wa kegano moto" - if you are not seriously ready to train (to put your life or death to it) it will be dangerous for you.

Several high school students asked me to teach Knife Defense to them. As you are aware how dangerous High Schools are now. Many students carry knives. And as you know there have already been many murders in January 2008. This is a terrible thing and extremely difficult to fix this kind of trouble. Many people do not think that the problem is their problem, of course people feel bad but they do not connect themselves to it. YOUR daily life will help to fix these problems, we have to do it in our daily life. The most important is manner, how to talk to people and to be kind to others. The language that we use, how we talk is very important. Almost all problems come from conversations and lead to bigger problems which end in murders. Your daily life, your activity, how you talk to people, these individual actions make big peace in the world. This is a difficult thing but we have to do it. In our country, we have the freedom to talk but we have to learn to talk with manner. This small step will change you and the world.

I made a 3 Part Stage Seminar. This will occur weekly. Appointment must be made by phone only. You must take a minimum of three 1 hour seminars.

KUBOTAN
The Kubotan was created by Grandmaster Soke Kubota, Chief Instructor of IKA World. The Kubotan is a self defense key chain and is well known in the world. In Canada, Kancho T. Okuyama, General Director of IKA World, has the only right to teach the Kubotan technique. He has taught it for the military in Columbia, Ecuador, Israel and many other countries as well as the Police force for Russia and many Eastern European countries.
