16th November 2008 Hi Bob,
I came along to your class whilst I was a student living in Norwich and loved every minute for the three years I came, wish I\'d kept it up.
My daughter has just gained her black belt here in Huddersfield, wish we had Goju Ryu as it still has an impact on me now after 20 years.
Great to see you are still teaching the values which everyone needs in life!

7th January 2007 It's interesting to view White Crane king fu of four different styles through internet and compared to my knowledge on White Crane kung fu which is the flying crane style.
I can see some emphasize the eight principles of Fujan White Crane and many don't.
It's my sincere wish that the eight principles are explained and taught to all stdents.
Regards,Sidney

2nd January 2006 Nice website!! I was looking around at all the Jundokan Sites and found your site.
I'm a sandan under Morio Higaonna and the IOGKF.
I am not currently affiliated with the IOGKF due to political reasons.
I'm currently trying to affiliate with the Jundokan.
I also have a really nice Goju-Ryu Historical Footage dvd on my website.
Check it out if you get the chance.
Keep up the good work with your site.

10th December 2005 Hello Bob and Paul,I have been teaching Taiji for years and often talked about the hard Martial styles in a negative way.
Having met the two of you at the Taiji training with Master Wee Kee Jin, I was deeply touched by your humble and helpful attitude and learned that talking about things one doesn't know first hand is not wise!Keep up the good work.

you're great guys to know and learn from.

18th September 2005 hello sensie bob, it is a year now, since i met you, at the jkf seminar at oxford.
ive been to a few more of their courses, and come to the conclusion that im doing the wrong thing!i have been reading about the jundokan splitting from the kyokai, and i am in full agreement.
why should the jkfbe pulling the shots, on our beloved kata! they should be doing the kata the same as the elected home of goju ryuthe jundokan.
with that, i will be trying to speak to you in personso that i could start to train if allowed, with the jundokanall the best mark weatherill.

Glad to see the club is still going !Don't know if you'll remember us as past students (1984-1992, approx), still have great respect for you and for Goju Ryu.
Now living in Brisbane Australia, with 2 sons - 1 recently gained blue belt in Tae kwondo, started off in Goju and misses it!Best wishes to you all.
