Big Foot Tactical Martial Arts in Eugene

Beschreibung

My name is Grandmaster Brian Oakes 9th degree black belt. I have 40 years of experience in the martial arts. Initially I trained in Shotokan Karate, Akido and Judo receiving my first Black Belt in American Kenpo in 1991 from Master Thomas Georgion in San Diego. Along with my ongoing Kenpo training I've crossed trained in three different Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do schools which also taught Kail stick and knife, Mauy Thai and boxing classes. Also, I've spent a small fortune in seminars, videos and books in my quest to develop a new modern Kenpo system. A system combining classical Ed Parker Kenpo forms, sets and principles to new techniques and training sets combining information from several styles and always geared to modern street fighting. Despite my creating a new evolutionary Kenpo. I remain very traditional. I recognize that I'm blessed to be standing the shoulders of great martial art masters.

Over the years I've seen multiple students use Martial Art training as means to transform their lives using ancient and modern martial philosophy to their daily lives. My classes are safe, respectful and very honest. My students accomplish over just a few years to become effective Martial Art practitioners with a broad understanding of the arts, their history and traditions.
