January '09 Complex/Kumite Waza Seminar

Rayford Shorin-Ryu's Complex & Kumite Waza Seminar

Kyoshi Sid Rayford had the honor of hosting a seminar that featured a few favorite training tools of his late teacher, Sid Campbell. Renzokukens, fighting complexes, and kumite wazas (partner drills) were worked on for 3 hours on a seminar attended by Renshis, Senseis, and Kyu level students from Sonora, CA., Atwater, CA., LeGrand, CA., and Merced, CA.
