Bulletin Boards

Bucks Kempo Yahoo group: Our new group, please join so that we can use it.

(Guy will approve all membership requests from Bucks Kempo students and BKS instructors as soon as he gets them.)

 

 

Other useful contacts

 

Wycombe Liberal Club: our hosts.

 

Blitz Sport: Martial arts window shopping!  (But check the club trade prices with Guy before shopping, it’s probably cheaper.)

 

Bucks Martial Arts – a friendly shop just down the road in Bourne End offering mail order martial arts kit.

 

 

Recommended Reading

(These links are mostly to Amazon, but we make nothing off this – so beg, buy or borrow the books wherever you can!)

 

Small Circle Jiu Jitsu, by Wally Jay (useful for all levels)

 

Advanced Pressure Point Fighting of Kyushu Jitsu, by George Dillman (good from about Orange Belt)

 

The Main Meridians, by Erle Montaigue (extremely useful from Purple upwards)

 

“Steve” – the acupuncture body model.  (Guy uses the 46cm model - very useful from Green upwards.)

 

 

Other local martial art clubs

Listing them here is not an endorsement, and we have no formal links with these clubs, but we have met them and they’re friendly! 

 

Chesham Spirit Combat (Sensei Jim Cochran)

 

Wycombe Judo Centre

 

Park Lodge Jiu Jitsu Club (Sensei Holly Hudson)

 

School of Traditional Medieval Fencing (Master Chris Stride)

 

 

More distant martial arts clubs

None of these clubs are local, but again we’ve met and trained with them, and like the people and what they do – if you are in their area, go and say hello.
