Mr. Dimmick, I am student of martial arts for the past 5 years i have studied Okinawan Shuri-Ryu Karate and hold a blue belt rank. The Sensei closed all his schools here in arizona due to financial difficulty.I was told he was doing private classes at his home,but,i do not have $30 an hour,i lost my job last january but now back into teaching high school again this year

I found a kenpo school i can join and i am looking forward to it. kenpo will be a new move for me,blessings to you sir.

Mr. Dimmick,

It was great to see you in action. I met Rich Post in '95-6 at Herb Steet's school in Hemet, Ca. I taught classes for Herb after his accident, & had an advanced class. Rich, Willy Steele, Dan Laxson, Dan Maxwell & I ripped it up back then, & your name came up regularly. I heard you retired, but I'll bet you still have a small class somewhere. I'm banged up & 'creaky' now, but I run a small Kenpo Club in Northern Colorado.

Just wanted to pay my respects.

Take care Sir...

Yes, sir Mr. Dimmick. I will continue studying Kenpo. I will have my blue belt in about 3 weeks to a month. I love being a Sam Pai Kenpo student and look forward to being at your level one day. I have a long way to go, but when you love it, it doesn't seem long. Thank you, Mr. Dimmick and take care.

Thank you, Mr. Dimmick! I love your videos. I am a student under Corey and Mr. O. You sign my certificates along with Mr. O. It is an honor to be under you and the other masters. Thank you again.

@carlosdavilasd Carlos, I appreciate you taking the time to check out our videos...thanks for the kudos.

I hope you continue your study of 3-Shields Kenpo. I really don't consider myself a master..maybe an

expert...however, I'm still working on it...I need all the help I can get! Thanks again.

Very well done Mr. Dimmick. Thank you very much for posting,

[JoeDimmick]

@sigung86 Thanks for your kind and positive feed back!

[JoeDimmick]

Hello...and thanks for viewing this video. Mr. Wagner, my willing co-partner in this demo, is a Black Belt, a super actor and "dodger"... he makes the moves look more real than they are. Actually any strikes to the head did not touch him at all...the final kicks(body) were controlled to sustain minimum contact and he flowed with the force. Thanks again for your interest.

Amazing for a demonstration, because of the speed, the way the opponent hits the floor and also the reaction of the audiance (I believe during the last technique someone yells "your going to kill him"). Mr. Dimmick, some of the techniques you can see are controlled at a slight distance from contact but some appear to be full contact with control, is this as it appears?

[jackgergle]

O cool this is awesome

[jackgergle]

Was this a real tournament or was it a simulated fight?

[JoeDimmick]

@jackgergle Actually, is was a demonstration at the Championships.
