About Me:
 
Thanks for visiting. Let me first extend my hand in friendship and bid you welcome. By way of introduction, my name is Bill Mc Cabe, and I am the Webmaster for the Iron Crane Dojo (www.ironcrane.com). You should know up front I've spent a large part of my 60 years researching, studying and participating in the many styles of martial arts, and I believe anyone who knows me would state without reservation I am one heckuva student. In other words, I claim nothing else, but that I, perhaps like you, am a student of the martial arts, love them all, have incorporated them into every aspect of my life, and look forward to sharing my experiences with you. These clips and images document my personal history and evolution in the arts, in other words...my story, the roadmap to where I am today. They are presented for your entertainment, and enjoyment. I have nothing to hide. You will see my imperfections, and also witness my growth. Please be kind in your comments and observations.

Everything you see was filmed when the opportunity presented. There were no rehearsals for kata and forms, and all self defense presentations were improvised on the spot. Gun Fu as an art exists in the moment, and we tried to bring that point across. There were no plans, no scripts and no re-shoots, the camera was on, the action was recorded, and that's what you're seeing. We chose not to hide our shortcomings, what you get is what we are. Bear that in mind should you decide to judge harshly!

You should also know there is in fact a physical Iron Crane Dojo and its students and teachers play a major role in compiling the exhibits you see, including photographs, videos, etc. We are grateful for their generous contribution of time and resources, without which these archives would not exist.

These viewings are for entertainment purposes only. We are not encouraging you to do or to believe anything, except to view, enjoy, and think!

You are welcome to make comments as you see fit. I generally do not respond...there just isn't time. As to friend invites...I'm old fashioned. I make friends the neanderthal way, I get to know somebody, do things with them, share life experiences, and maybe after 10-15 years, when I know they are trustworthy and honorable and have my back covered, I think of them of friends. Bottom line is nix on friend invites.

Never forget that martial arts, like any rigorous course of physical activity, presents the risk of injury, sometimes serious, disabling, or even fatal. Actual techniques should only be practiced in a controlled environment emphasizing safety, under the direct supervision of a Black Belt instructor (in whom you have trust and confidence), and only after you have been cleared by your personal physician.

Our videos may be embedded provided the appropriate warning and disclaimer text is included wherever our videos are placed. Otherwise ... verboten!

Now go ahead, saddle up on some of those dancing electrons and enjoy yourself!
