  • Unsubscribing for now

    Solid podcast but your recent move to allow corporate commercials to advertise runs in direct opposition to the purported values of your show. I’ll return when they go away. Thanks.

  • Top notch

    I really appreciate the show, it has really filled in som blanks in my practice, sometimes you just need to get the material presented in an other way to get it.

    really nice to get a thorough background story of important figures of these arts.

    If distance wasn’t a problem I would go and catch some training from these guys.

    Bruce Frantzis is a well known martial artist who has been teaching and writing for over forty years. This podcast is done by two long time students who go through one of his books in detail. Plenty of stories and interviews to get a flavor of the old days
