On our DEBUT EPISODE here's Grand Master Chuck Boyd of the IKCA & Temple Protection Institute. I learned a lot this episode - back in the 1960's when GM Boyd started training he went through quite a bit of shenanigans just to find a school that would let him enroll. He met Chuck Sullivan at the Crenshaw school and off he went on his Journey through the arts. Hear about JKD, Silat, and words of advice from a man who's been teaching for almost 50 years at the time of this publication.
Special Thank You on our Debut Episode to Anastacio Vazquez for writing our theme music and Marcus Moore for his usual great job webmastering.
