Gentlemen, I have just returned to NZ and have spent part of this evening reading through the Bartitsu Forum archives. It occurs to me that we have an ...
I will also have some free time in England during the last week of September, basing out of London, and will be happy to meet other Bartitsu enthusiasts then;...
I might be out of the country in October. I won't know until closer to time. However, I'll be off next week, so I may do some Bartitsu e-mailing and comments,...
... Hi Will, I *may* still be in London in early October - we should keep in touch on that. I'd like to try to avoid the catch-22 of organising a Bartitsu...

I know. I know. Define your terms. My jiu-jitsu traning involved some groundwork,but not in comparison to the Gracie method, which I'm not saying is bad. I...

Any sources for Italian manuals on street savate, walking-stick fighting, boxing/jiujitsu/whatever combinations? I will try to track them down and copy/buy...
That's probably more Ralph and Craig's bailiwick, but my one suggestion would be to try contacting Lorenzo Ravazzini. I'm sure he could add some on the Italian...
As Jason recommended Lorenzo is up in Milan but worth visiting as is Gianluca who i believe is a little closer to where you are Tony. Cherpillo's Lutte and JJ...
