No, this isn't me. There are a lot of videos of me on my channel, but this isn't one of them. It is from a demonstration by Oyata shinshi in Fargo in the mid to late 1980s. Oyata shinshi brought a number of his personal students with him and they did various kobudo kata at his demonstration. I probably won't be leaving this video up for long, I just uploaded it for reference in a discussion on the traditional fighting arts forums.
Oh my God, its Rocky Leavitt impersonator this is got to be about what Rocky moved like:)
