    Tony --

    I haven't read your material on Mrs. Garrud, but I've read some of Emelyne's. Emelyne has a chapter called "Jujutsuffragettes" in the encyclopedia, actually.

    Eugene,
    Glad you like "Working with Warriors" I really wanted to give Terry O'Neill and Gary Spiers the recognition they deserve as awesome fighting men.
    Cheers,
    Den

    Den-
    Yeah, they were tough guys, weren't they?

    Your website has been very helpful: the Fairbairn stick method is a clear precursor to the straight baton kata I was taught back at Ishin Ryu, which I suspect is the same as the WJJF syllabus kata, I may need to ask someone about that.

    History of Jiu-Jitsu podcast episodes, Japan was opened up to the West in 1852, but it would take a while yet for Japanese martial arts to reach British soil. Jiu-Jitsu practice was about performance in the early 20th century. Jiu-Jitsu's history is more complex. Even martial arts movies seem to have swung back to jiu-jutsu.
