Hillcrest Academy of Martial Arts Belt Test - Joe (2nd dan), Meghan (Brown) September 30th, 2004

(webmaster) Unfortunately, I was only able to be there the first 75 minutes of the test, so I'm heavy on bear-hugs & hand-techniques, but I have nothing from the weapons, other grabs/chokes, sparring, or grappling, etc.  It's a small sample of Goshin Jujutsu, but a good one. Note:  these are AVI files and are about 1-1.5 meg apiece (not small).  If you aren't on a fast connection you'll have to wait a bit... - sorry, it's a broadband world now.
