I know some of you came to our dojo for the seminar that flintknapper put together awhile back.

Since there was a good deal of interest in it, I thought I would let ya'll know about the annual camp that we have each year, first weekend of October. (It's called a camp because it last's all weekend... we don't actually camp. We prefer hotels... :grin: )

All of the info is here: http://www.joerlansdale.com/shenchuan/n ... amp11.html

I PROMISE you, and flint can back me up on this... if you liked the seminar you got, you will be completely blown away by our Camp.

No martial arts background is necessary. Just a willingness to learn. There will be something for everyone... 10th degree black belt or just walked in the door! All levels...

Hi BJ,

I was hoping you'd post about the "Camp".

It is definitely a unique opportunity to train with some of the most talented martial artist's around.

See you there.



Flint.

No Sir,


Its actually a 3 day event this year. If I am reading it correctly....it will be Friday, Saturday, and most of the day Sunday. Come any or all of those days.

$100.00 for a three day event, training with MA's of this caliber is a supreme bargain.



TXinvestigator: This would be a good for you, hope you can make it.

Camp Lansdale 11
Tentative Schedule








Friday Night:


6:00-7:00pm: Sensei Adam Coats with Shihan Richard Hartstein, will demonstrate techniques from the SHEN CHUAN STREETBOXING DIVISION. Sensei Coats has been assigned the development of this division, overseen by Professor Coy Harry and Grandmaster Joe Lansdale.


7:00-8:00pm: Shihan Paul Britt will demonstrate techniques that show his personal approach to the harder style aspects of Shen Chuan. Shihan Britt has had many years of real street experience as a sheriff's deputy and police officer, and has written articles on martial arts for magazines.


8:00-9:00pm: Shihan Bob Lacher will be demonstrating Aikijujitsu techniques from Shen Chuan. Quick easy lock ups and throws.

9:00-10:00pm: Sensei Jared Taylor will teach techniques from Shen Chuan that link with the popular sport of combative ring arts. Sensei Taylor has had a number of successful ring bouts in both boxing and cage fighting. This should be fun and informative.


Saturday:


9:00-10:30am: Grandmaster Lansdale will demonstrate striking, advanced joint locking, and throws. Grandmaster Lansdale will have been involved in self-defense and traditional and non-traditional martial arts training 45 years as of this camp. UNIQUE AND AMAZING MATERIAL.


10:30-NOON: Our HEADLINER GUEST, Guru Mike Casto will be demonstrating how he has added Shen Chuan training to his training in Sikal, and other systems, and how in turn he has brought other techniques to Shen Chuan. Mike is a very fine martial artist and is a student of Grandmaster Lansdale, as well as Guru Ken Pannell of the Sikal system. He has been a guest many times at Camp Lansdale, but this is his first, and well deserved, time to be our headliner along with Grandmaster Lansdale. You DO NOT WANT TO MISS THIS.


NOON-1:00pm: LUNCH (No instructor necessary)


1:00-2:00pm: Our SPECIAL GUEST, Sifu Brandon Jones, will be demonstrating techniques of self-defense from his system, SEVEN STAR PRAYING MANTIS. This is a rare and unusual system, and an equally rare opportunity.


2:30-3:30pm: Grandmaster Lansdale returns with pressure point training, balance disruption, as well as assorted self-defense techniques. If you haven't seen Shen Chuan balance disruption, you are in for a treat.


3:30-4:30pm: Professor Billy Jack Worsham will teach a clinic on quick strikes to finish. Professor Billy Jack is one of Grandmaster's personal students, and is a personal student of Professor Coy Harry, inheritor of the Shen Chuan system. Fast and furious. We call Professor Billy Jack Worsham the Rabid Chihuahua.


4:30-5:30pm: Sifu Michael Billings will teach Chinese Kenpo, emphasizing elements of Shen Chuan that he has added into his techniques. Mike is a long time Kenpo practioner, and a very good one. This will be an outstanding session.


5:30-5:45pm: A BREAK, and you'll need it.


5:45-6:45pm: Praying Mantis Gung Fu with Sifu Brandon Jones. Another look at this unique form of self-defense.



Sunday:


9:00-11:00am: Guru Mike Casto. A full two hour session with Guru. This time emphasizing weapons, stick and knife and empty hand.


11:00-NOON: Professor Coy Harry, Soke Dai of the Shen Chuan system will teach concepts and principles and how to apply them to technique. Professor Harry is Grandmaster's hand picked successor and his knowledge of the art, and his ability to explain and teach it, are unsurpassed.


NOON-1:00pm: Unsupervised lunch. Don't put your eye out.


1:00-2:30pm: Grandmaster Joe Lansdale: Full Tilt Boogie Shen Chuan. Many aspects of this exciting art will be explored by its founder.


2:30-3:30pm: Professor Eugene Frizzell, Grandmaster Lansdale's senior student, will show techniques from SHEN CHUAN STICKBOXING, with the help of Sensei Kelly Owens, an excellent stick and knife man himself.


3:30-5:00pm: Guru Mike Casto will show a variety of techniques from his self-defense training.

Right John... Friday night (5th), all day Saturday (6th) and all day Sunday (7th). And the price really can't be beat for the caliber of instruction and the hours provided seeing as we normally do personal seminars for $60 and above for only 8 hours. But Professor Lansdale doesn't do this one for the money. Just enough to cover the cost of bringing guests in. He likes to have one time a year when he can bring in high caliber teachers to pass knowledge on to high caliber students.

Come if you can. You won't be disappointed.

Just a reminder, if any of you will be in the Nacogdoches area this weekend. It's going to be a good'ern.

Also, we reduced the price 25 bucks for those that preregister by 4:00pm Friday. That way we save some time and can get right to it Friday night.

So 75 bucks preregistered or 100 bucks at the door for Friday night, all day Saturday and all day Sunday.
