I am sharing an excerpt from what a student shared with me. We hope to see you in class!
“Uechi Ryu never cared about touching gloves first for a referee’s point.
It cared about ending the encounter.
That distinction separates combat arts from performance arts.
Today, in an era flooded with social media martial artists and commercial belt factories, Uechi Ryu feels almost rebellious in its simplicity. It asks students to do what modern culture hates:
be patient,
train hard,
repeat basics,
accept discomfort,
and earn progress slowly.
It is not flashy enough for Hollywood.
Not marketable enough for strip mall empires.
Not glamorous enough for quick fame.
But under pressure, those old Okinawan methods still hold weight.
Because violence has not changed.
And neither did Uechi Ryu.”
We had a lot of fun and wonderful knowledge sharing during this day, and throughout the whole trip to the UK!
Awesome video taken by Sensei Jim Hulse and the members of the Uechi Ryu - Stoke while Sensei Tim and I visited!
