MIKE CLAPHAM Comecei meu treinamento no karatê em 1973, aos 16 anos. O dojo ficava no porão de um hotel com vista para a água de Southampton. O estilo era Kyushindo, meu professor era um cavalheiro chamado Ray Wood. Após 4 anos de treinamento, fui classificado para faixa preta sob o olhar atento do instrutor-chefe de Kyushindo, um francês chamado George Mayo (ao contrário da maioria dos sistemas, você foi classificado como faixa preta primeiro e depois shodan) alguns anos depois, eu estava classificado para shodan. Em 1982, enquanto trabalhava como operador na Usina Elétrica de Fawley, abri um dojo em sua sala de conferências, que contou com a presença de alguns de meus colegas e seus amigos e familiares. Em 1983 fui classificado para Nidan. Após nove anos, o despedimento e a mudança de carreira forçaram uma pausa na minha formação. Em 2004 fui apresentado pelo meu bom amigo Richard Cozens a Kyoshi David Passmore que recentemente começou a ensinar Budokan em um pequeno dojo em New Forest. Sou aluno do Sensei David Passmore desde então e recentemente tive o privilégio de receber o posto de Godan e o título de Shihan. Durante esse tempo, tive a sorte de participar de três seminários de fim de semana na Buxton University e um em Ardingly, onde pude participar de aulas como Jujitsu, Aikido, Kobudo, Judô, Jodô e Kendo, para citar apenas alguns, ministrados por professores de alto escalão, principalmente o falecido Fuji Sensei Kendo Master. Recentemente me tornei um líder de dojo em um dos clubes satélites do Sensei, onde me esforço para manter os altos padrões incutidos em mim pelo meu Sensei e os altos padrões que o Budokan representa. É meu objetivo tentar ajudar os alunos que eu treino a serem o melhor que podem ser, enquanto o tempo todo tento melhorar continuamente. Sempre o aluno!

NOSSA LINHAGEM Mike showing Pinan Sandan Group Pinan Sandan Mike training in Seisan Paul training in Pinan Sandan 6 RULES FOR OIZUKI CHUDAN FROM SHIZEN DACHI HEIKO Mike Clapham 5 Dan Karate The Stance - Dachi Stand with you feet together. Keeping heels together open both feet out to 45º Move both heels out square. Open both feet out again to 45º This is the Shizen Dachi Heiko stance. Starting from the waist down. First slightly splay the knees to put tension in the upper and lower leg muscles and to push the outer edges of your feet - the sokuto - into the floor using your ankles and also grip the floor with your toes. This gives your punch a strong base to support it. A strong punch without a good base will be ineffective. The Fist - Seiken You begin to do this by curling your fingers into your palm. Start with your little finger first and then finally by wrapping your thumb across the index and middle fingers tightly because when you strike you want to be able hit with the first two knuckles of these fingers. It is the little finger and the thumb that construct an ideal rock like fist that does not collapse upon impact. (If your wrist is bent slightly upward or downward this will result in a weak punch and on contact, possible damage to your wrist) The Posture - Shisei Stand upright with your shoulders relaxed, bring your arms into the ready position at your side so the fists are facing palms up and level with your solar plexus and your arms are tight to the side of your body. To prepare yourself extend your left arm out straight in front of you as if you've just punched. Your palm should be facing downward horizontally aligned with your solar plexus and vertically with the midline of your body - your spine. The Punch - Zuki This is the form that you want to replicate with every punch you make. In this position your first punch will be using the right arm positioned against your ribs in line with the solar plexus. Sightly flick your right hip in an anti-clockwise direction which is the trigger that initiates the punch. Immediately the hips move the punch follows extending your right arm in relaxed reflex action towards the outstretched left fist. The palm remains facing upward for most of its projection. As the punch is in its last 12 to 15cms you start to rotate it through 180 degrees to replace your left first which you now need to be pulling back very quickly so that both fists come to a stop at exactly the same time. The fast pulling back of the left first gives added impetus and power to the punching right fist. Breathing - Kokyu Correct breathing is vital to a strong attack and to its intention. Take a short breath into your lower abdomen before the punch and then expel the air so that your out breath and punch both stop at the same time. In the final second as your punch hits its target there should be tension from your toes up followed by immediate relaxation of the muscles whilst keeping the form of the movement. Keep your mind focussed here and get ready for the next punch. Common mistakes to be avoided: Make sure you don't rotate your fist too early. Make sure that the punch moves in a straight line from its start position to its finish position. This is done by making sure that as the arm is moving through its direction of travel it stays in contact and is not allowed to float away from your body distorting its aim.

IAN CARD So very sad to hear of the passing of Ian Card from cancer. Here is a picture we have of him taking a class at the notorious but much loved High Rocks Dojo near Tunbridge Wells in 1980. Hello Sensei Just a few words I've put together about Ian who would have been celebrating his 70th Birthday today.....27 June 2020. Hope all is going well with you and the club Best wishes Smudger We started training together at the TA hall in St Johns Road Tunbridge Wells 52 years ago It was hard Karate. Ali was on hand to take the money and to take the splinters out of our feet! We went to various locations to train over the years. One time we were training in London where we both got a lift with all the mats in a transit van we had a hard training session with free fighting Ian caught Ken so hard it broke his sternum after training we went to the pub had a few pints of fullers and then home in the van with Ken who kept telling us not to make him laugh as it hurt Ken made a quick recovery and was back training with us. Ian went to train in other areas enjoying kickboxing, boxing & jujitsu, he was also a bouncer at a night club for a while. But his heart belonged to Budokan. I fought him, I fought with him, I had a good drink with him many times he was my best friend. Your old mate Smudger.... Ian with his soulmate Frances.

O Zen foi descrito como um ensino especial sem escrituras, além das palavras e letras, apontando para a essência da mente do nosso ser, vendo diretamente em sua natureza, alcançar a iluminação. Zen não é uma seita, mas uma experiência. É a prática de auto-busca através da meditação para perceber sua verdadeira natureza, desrespeitando o formalismo, com insistência na autodisciplina e simplicidade de viver. O espírito Zen passou a significar não apenas paz e compreensão mas a devoção à arte e ao trabalho, o rico desdobramento do contentamento, abrindo a porta para o discernimento, a expressão da beleza inata e o encanto intangível da incompletude. Isso foi dito, que se você tem Zen em sua vida, você não tem medo, sem dúvida, sem desejo desnecessário e nenhuma emoção extrema. Nem atitudes iliberais nem as ações egoístas o incomodam. Você serve a humanidade humildemente, cumprindo sua presença neste mundo com bondade amorosa e observando sua passagem como uma pétala caindo de uma flor. Sereno, você aproveita a vida em uma tranqüilidade feliz. Tal é o espírito do Zen. Para estudar o Zen, o florescimento da natureza, não é tarefa fácil. Parafraseado de Zen Flesh, Zen Bones por Paul Reps

DEAL DOJO ROY ESTABROOK HAS NOW MOVED TO DEAL IN KENT WHERE HE IS TO OPEN A NEW BUDOKAN DOJO SOON. WE WILL BRING YOU NEWS OF THAT OF COURSE..... MEANWHILE HERE IS HIS AUTOBIOGRAPHY. My journey in the Japanese M artial Arts began in 1972, aged 18 when I enrolled in the Budokan UK Northolt Karate dojo run by Sensei David Passmore. At th at time there were two classes on a Tuesday and a Thursday evening in a school gym. I attended both of those. There were a lot of people interested in taking up Martial Arts so Sensei had to run two classes each night. One for beginners which ran for 90 minutes and one for Kyu grades which ran for two hours. We only practiced Karate in those early years, and my first grading certificate says Budo-ryu karate grade 6th kyu. I can remember registering on my first evening of training. Standing in a queue with Sandi Groom who was sitting by the entrance, taking names down. It was intimidating at first but I remember over all it was a welcoming atmosphere. Each class usually consisted of Kihon, Ippon Kumite and Kata. Sometimes the beginners class was run by Sandi Groom or Marion Tinkler. We didn't have a lot of female students so it was good to have these two formidable and pioneer women leading the class. By the time I reached my Shodan grading in 1977 , Aikido had become an intrinsic part of the practice. I took the grading with two other students, and we had to go through four preparation classes at the High Rocks dojo which was then the Hombu dojo. To say they were demanding would be a huge understatement but they did prepare us well for what was to come. We also had to write four short essays on different subjects relating to our practice. The memories of that day are as strong as ever and receiving my black belt from Sensei was a great moment. Under the technical direction of Sensei David Passmore, I became Chief Instructor at the King's College Dojo on the Strand in London. Around the same time, I was promoted to Chief Instructor of the Northolt dojo when it was relocated to a new home. The new premises at Northolt allowed us to have a mat down permanently as we were the sole user of the premises. It also had an area outside where we could practice in the summer months. Instructing at two dojos meant that I was teaching five sessions a week thus finessing my teaching skills and style. I would also attend the Sunday training class that Sensei held at the High Rocks dojo. The King's College Dojo expanded very quickly. The classes were on a Wednesday evening from 7pm to 9pm, and Saturday Morning from 11am to 1pm. We were the only Martial Arts club at the college then, and interest was high. We often had up to fifty beginner students training. Sensei would come to teach once a month at the Saturday morning class. We held Gashkyu at King's College on a regular basis under his guidance, usually to combine with Gradings. It was at the Christmas Gashkyu on the 6th December 1980 that I was proud to receive my Nidan grade. The first time that Sensei had awarded that prestigious grade. A few years later, the Northolt dojo closed for land redevelopment and I took this opportunity to open a new dojo in Edgware. Eventually the Edgware dojo changed venue to Bounds Green where Roger Tym was the instructor. I moved to Cambridgeshire where I would continue to teach. It was a time of tremendous growth in Budokan, and for myself as I was able to guide and teach Kyu grades through to their Shodan. During this period, our Gashkyu were held at the National Sports centre in Crystal Palace. They consisted of two day residential seminars on weekends. The Sunday Morning class started with Shinkantaza at 7am before breakfast. Despite the raucous traditional party on the Saturday evening, most students would attend the Zazen. Sensei would invite guest instructors to teach on different sections on the mat. Sensei Vic Cook came and taught one memorable Iaido class. It was at a Gashkyu at Crystal Palace in April of 1982 that I was granted my Sandan. Sensei David Passmore always encouraged his students to expand their knowledge of the Martial Arts and I attended Aikido courses taught by different Sensei. These included Sensei Saito , Sensei Tamura, Sensei Tomita, and Sensei Minoru Kanetsuka when he was invited to our club for a two-day course. It was a very intensive weekend and I think I've still got a right shoulder injury to remember him by. For the first two hours of the opening session, he concentrated on my favourite Suwariwaza ikkyo before we went through the remaining Katame Waza. In 1991, I received a personal invitation from Master Minoru Mochizuki, founder of his own school of Martial Arts, the Yoseikan Budo. I had been writing to him for advice on matters relating to classical bu-jutsu so I gratefully accepted that invitation to train at his Hombu Dojo in Shizuoka, Japan. Minoru Mochizuki had been Uchi-deshi to Jigoro Kano and to Morihei Ueshiba as well as studying with Gichen Funakoshi. Only two people ever received a Menkyo Kaiden from O'Sensei Morihei Ueshiba: Kenji Tomiki and Minoru Mochizuki. The Yoseikan school's training curriculum was similar to that of Budokan: to practice more than one Martial Art and therefore remain open-minded in your development. I was going to represent Budokan so I felt compelled to intensify my training prior to my travelling to Japan. I stayed at the Yoseikan Hombu Dojo for four weeks and trained relentlessly every single day in order to gain as much understanding as I could from this great teacher. The Dojo operated daily, with Aikido on Monday, Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday afternoon. Thursday evening was free practice. The Aikido nights always included Karate training. Each session began with the punch bag when a variety of punches and strikes with the hands and elbows were practiced, followed by a full range of kicking techniques. What separates Yoseikan Aiki from other schools is the use of Sutemi Waza [sacrifice throws]. I had never practiced this before and found that this judo influence helped my understanding of Aikido. Just as Jujitsu-influenced Karate increased my own understanding of Karate. I would often practice in the afternoon on my own. I particularly enjoyed using the Dojo's Makiwara. I was told by one of the Master's Uchi-Deshi that he was happy with my progress. This level of commitment led me to be invited back but sadly I could not return. In my work as a Director of Photography, I travelled extensively. I was fortunate enough to visit our Budokan dojo in Bahrain where Mahmoud Fahkro had his club. He kindly asked me to teach some classes and was particularly interested in me leading a kata class. I practiced some T'ai Chi ch'uan in Hong Kong. Our local production fixer introduced me to a t'ai chi teacher who guided me through one t'ai chi form. I was very interested in the passive and active principles of the form and the breathing linked to the movement. I had to get up very early and train in a park before going to work. I was able to practice some Gojo ryu in Australia. I had attended a Gojo ryu classes at home in Ely and I had agreed with the instructor that I would teach him some Aikido in exchange of Gojo ryu Kata Shisochin . He gave me a letter of introduction to a dojo in Sydney where I was able to train on my visit. I was awarded my Yondan on the 21st November 1987 at a Gashkyu in Wadhurst. The same hall that I had achieved my Shodan. I have always considered the martial Art studied within Budokan to be of the highest quality and when Kyoshi asked me to be on the Shihankai, I was truly honoured to be involved. I hope my experience can be of benefit as we continue to diligently study on our chosen path. One of the most treasured memories I have is being able to do some Zazen at Sigiriya rock in SriLanka - a place of Buddhist retreat and meditation for as far back as the 3rd century BC. Budokan is the only Martial Arts organisation that I know of that includes Zazen as part of its programme. Studying the Martial Arts has had a major influence on my life, and with the formal introduction of Zazen into the training syllabus back in the 1980's perhaps the biggest influence of all.
