NUNCHAKU (Nunchuks) in ARIZONA

during kobudo classes at the Seiyo Kai Hombu in Mesa, Gilbert and
Chandler, East Valley of Phoenix.

Shorin-Ryu Karate and Kobudo go hand in hand at the Arizona Hombu in Mesa, Gilbert and Chandler in the east valley of Phoenix, Arizona, where members train in Seiyo Shorin-Ryu Karate. Such traditional karate focuses on development of power and respect - and teaches deshi (students) how to use weapons: most anything can be use as a weapon!

I remember hearing about an attempted bank robbery back in the late 60s to 70s that took place in California (where else?). The would-be robber had been watching Bruce Lee and wanted to show off. After telling the bank teller he was armed with "numb-chuks", he stepped back with his bag of money, started showing off and apprehended himself with a nice blow to the middle of his head. SO, if you would like to get rid of most of the crooks - give them a pair of nunchaku without lessons. It is guaranteed to work. Don't like your neighbor? Give him a pair of nunchuks for his birthday.
