“Bruce Tegner lives in California, His style is Jukado, a mixture of Judo, Karate and Akido. Fraud or not he had a big following here in the Claremont N.H area. My first style of Karate ( I knew no other) was Jukado. I started in the 70's.
My Sensei, Det. Edgar Lunderville, Claremont P.D was a big follower of Bruce Tegner. I understand from him that Bruce Tegner developed this system from various things that he had learned, put them together into a system and called it Jukado. My Sensei studied under a person in Rhode Island whom studied under Bruce Tegner.
This is what I know of him.
I am curious as to what makes him a "fraud". It seems that he has trained under various people. He has written a lot of books and seems to know what he is talking about.
Every basic in the Jukado system is what I study today. It appears that he made his own Kata.
As I said before I would be curious as to what makes him a fraud and where would I find this site that says he is.
Thank you

Above is something I found on a Yahoo group. The group is having discussion of sorts over the value of Mr. Tegner’s literary efforts and someone has implied that he is a fraud. Pretty much typical internet dribble.
I thought that Mr Tegner passed away sometime ago. I thought I had read the obituary information that someone posted on e-budo. I have searched the site and could not find it? Does anybody else remember this? Also I knew Bruce Tegner was a Judoka. But I never heard of Jukado. Anybody ever hear of Jukado? Just curious. Have a good day everybody.
