SENSEI ROSS IAANACCRO SEMINAR

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 21st 2003

WE WERE INVITED TO ATTEND THE ROSS IAANACCRO SEMINAR IN WALES BY HEATH GAIT OF THE FALCONS MARTIAL ARTS ACADEMY - AND WHAT A DAY IT WAS !! IF YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SENSEI ROSS OR NEVER BEEN TO ONE OF HIS SEMINARS OR CLASSES - THEN I THINK THAT YOU HAVE MISSED OUT ON SOMETHING QUITE SPECIAL. SENSEI ROSS IAANACCRO IS A VERY EXPERIENCED MARTIAL ARTIST - AND VERY VERY GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES - AND YOU CAN BE ASSURED OF A VERY GOOD DAY OUT IF YOU DO EVER ATTEND ONE OF HIS SEMINARS. IT WAS A VERY LONG DAY FOR US COMING FROM SWINDON AND ANDOVER TO GET TO THE DOJO IN WALES - BUT WELL WORTH THE JOURNEY - WE STARTED OFF WITH A TRADITIONAL WARM UP AND THEN GOT DOWN TO SOME VERY GOOD TECHNIQUES AND TAKE-DOWNS - PLUS SOME VERY GOOD HOLDS AND SUBMISSIONS - SENSEI ROSS BROUGHT ALONG WITH HIM TWO ASSISTANT INSTRUCTORS WHO WERE ALSO VERY KNOWLEDGABLE OF THE STYLE TAUGHT BY SENSEI ROSS - AND BOTH VERY POLITE AND HELPFULL. I HAVE STUDIED JIU JITSU MYSELF AND GAINED A NUMBER OF BELTS WITHIN VARIOUS STYLES -  AND IT WAS A NICE CHANGE TO ATTEND A SEMINAR AND 95% OF WHAT YOU LEARN IS NEW. ALL IN ALL IT WAS A VERY GOOD DAY - AND WOULD CERTAINLY ATTEND AGAIN IF THERE WAS EVER ANOTHER ARRANGED IN THE FUTURE - THE ONLY DOWN SIDE TO THE DAY WAS THAT I FORGOT MY CAMERA TO GET A FEW PICTURES OF THE DAY. YOU CAN VISIT THE FALCONS WEB SITE AT http://www.falconsmartialarts.com/ TO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER EVENTS ORGANISED BY HEATH. AGAIN THANKS TO HEATH GAIT FOR PUTTING THIS EVENT TOGETHER - AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO VISITING YOU AGAIN FOR THE NEXT ONE. WAYNE TIMLIN - IMPACT MARTIAL ARTS ACADEMY
