The Bushido Challenge II W.S.K.A. presents Bushido Challenge II Sparring and no-gi grappling tournament. Saturday September 17. This tournament is a Beginner and Novice level tournament only. Location: Y.W.C.A. gym 503 Castroville Rd, San Antonio TX time 10:00am to 2:00pm. more information@ www.wskachampion.com or call sensei Morris Arredondo (830) 896-1987. We are expecting a good showing of beginner and novice level grapplers to showcase what they have learned and get their feet wet in the world of Texas grappling. I also have it on good authority that there will likely be some great looking, state level beauty contestants there for pictures and autographs. It would be nice for all of the veterans in the area to come out and show support for the people just getting into the sport. If you're in the area, we'd love to see you there.

Vince, I just wanted you to know that what you teach has proven effictive. I had my very first tournament (the Bushido Challenge that I posted here) and only one match in my weight cla*s. Further, only one point was scored on a takedown from a middle clinch. But, it was enough for me to win. The takedown was the one you taught us from the middle clinch position where you strike *cough* with the upper arm and pull down with the other (under hook). We practiced it at the seminar you gave in S.A. and it won the day for me. Thanks for taking the time with the newbies (me) and giving me a fighting chance against a much stronger opponent (the guy can likely bench press 2 of me). Another attendee (Jeremy, I think was his name) wiped up the matt with an opponent that was very intense and in very good shape. He submitted the guy twice and controlled the entire 2x2min match. He made a great showing.
Once again, you're tried and proven techniques show to be effective and very beneficial. Thank you for being so bold as to share your knowledge. You are raising the bar in the sport and the community.

Billy,
Congrats on your win and on simply competing! I am happy that you came here and posted your results.
Just a few clarifications, it sounds like your describing the head and arm throw from high clinch. The way I generally break down clinching is high clich, low clinch, and plum clinch.
Keep up you training and competing bro! I am very happy to be able to a*sist in any way.
Vince
