A successful event!
.
A 5 Days Blade Mechanics Intensive Training was held between 16th June 2008 to 20th June 2008, in Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom.
.
It was attended by individuals from different countries, back grounds and professions, from an english teacher, builders, a carpenter, a business man, an engineer, a computer programmer and security.
.
The numbers were kept minimum to ensure correct understanding of instructions; we covered the details of blade mechanics and conditioning peripheral and spacial awareness for the 5 days.
.
I would like to convey my deepest appreciation to all those who participated for their openess and determination to attend the Bruneian Martial Arts Seminar. In alphabetical order, Andrew Lewis (Cardiff), Chris Norvil (Newport), Darren Lewis (Cardiff), Dellroy Peng (Bristol), Deon (Bistol), Grant Scruggs (Germany/US), Hans Menck (South Africa), Kei Brooks (Hong Kong/UK), Nazrul Rahman (Brighton), Tony (Bristol) and Tony Allen (London).
.
The guys that came were full of character and thier own personality, the 5 days flew by so fast. Others make friends by shaking hands, in SSBD we make friends by trying to beat them with sticks and stab them with knives :) Im proud to call these great group of people my friends.
.
This workshop like my other events aims primarily to raise the curiosity and awareness among people from different nationalities about the martial heritage and culture of Brunei Darussalam in general.
