WinterFest 2022

This is my first new post on the old Uechi Forums in years. Social Media redirected many of us from the coming here to discuss topics and explore other topics of interest penned by others. I don't know about you, but I am more than tired of Facebook and other popular programs of conversation and dec...

Re: Is this still a forum?

Bullcrap. . . Just that you guys are getting too old to fight with Glasheen. I see him on F.B., where I see him going head to head with younger and tougher opponents, all the while, projecting to millions of his fans, how smart he is. According to the pundits, you guys just weren't in his league! Of...

Re: No more than 3 Sanchin / day?

Re: VHS Training Tapes

I anticipated this problem many years ago and purchased the first vhs - dvd copy machine back in the early 90s. Was able to transfer all my vhs tapes to digital. Many of them are now offered on the uechi store as dvds.

Re: Hello from Singapore

Not sure about finding a dojo in Singapore. Why not form a study group and inviting your friends to study with you.

Stay in touch and let us know how your are doing.
