I live in Edmonton, Alberta Canada and as I would imagine there is not any affiliated schools around do you have DVD educational courses available or are there instructional books available from you or other sources? I instruct Aikido but am an advocate of learning any fighting style that will aid me while defending myself or my family from harm. I stress to my students how important it is to learn as many techniques possible- Many people have forgotten that Aikido is a Martial Art and was derived from two very brutal styles of Japanese martial arts. Thanks for the article and hopefully some help in obtaining more information on this style of defence. Barry Mottershead Hi: I am amazed with Mr. Barton Wright’s story.

Hugh Jackman would be perfect to play E W Barton -Wright t and Tony Wolf could be an adviser on this movie! What do you guys think?? Directed by Tim Burton or someone with creative vision!

I was wondering if there is any reputable school in New York? Or if not are there any regular seminars held there? Thank you!
