EVENTS 2001
Jon Tilley was invited by Sensei Chris Sharpe to Crewe Judo club on Thursday 31 October to run a Blocking and avoidance course in support of Martial ars fighting cancer.
Event report
When I arrived in Crewe I wasn't exactly sure what to expect from a strike andgrapple night, but Karthik who kindly joined me and I would soon find out, after having a grapple ourselves I then asked to see a quick demonstration fight. Well John who is a professional Vale Tudo fighter and Mark who is a Dan grade in Judo, but has a background in boxing demonstrated the commitment needed to enter all-in fighting tournaments, absolutely no favours were given or expected. I was then put in awkward situation of having a split class, one half were total beginners at striking based Martial arts, but then we had Chris, Mark and John who are all seasoned competion fighters. John and Mark incidently are training every day at the moment and this commitment shows.
I think I introduced the world of blocking, kicking and punching to the beginners while trying to gear the session towards offering the experienced fighters some new ideas and techniques. Everybody said they enjoyed the seminar, I hope this was genuine, I think so.
I would like to thank Chris for inviting me to give the seminar and good luck to Chris, John and Mark and the rest of Crewe Judo Club in their upcoming fights. Pictures below.

NEW SATURDAY SESSION AT MACCLESFIELD THAI BOXING GYM
Alastair Hall and myself our teaming up to run a monthly Saturday session. Steve Wilkinson kindly let's us borrow his facilities at Macclesfield Thai Boxing Gym at Paradise Mill, Park Street. The session will mainly be aimed at higher grades and fighters interested in competing so expect a good hard session. Alastair and I will split the coaching duties so students will get a combined total of over 25 years of experience.
The session will be held on the Saturday following All Styles sparring night at 4.00pm.

FIGHTERS MAGAZINE OPEN TOURNAMENT
Unfortunately I couldn't make the tournament this year, but Alastair Hall, Head Coach at Protea Kickboxing Association took a team down to the event and his report follows:-
Protea Kickboxing Association Fighters were: Alastair Hall, Amy Wood, Dan Masterson, Dave and Chloe Wilbraham, Nigel and Lisa Cash and James Bishton. Dave did really well and had three good fights sadly losing in the Final therefore he got a silver medal. An excellent performance the game plan worked to a Tee and he beat the first two fighters with ease they had gaps in their guard and Dave really capitalised here scoring easy points in unguarded areas. His timing was spot on as he waited for them kick and moved in before they could rechamber their leg to kick again. A solid performance and one that deserves a mention. First competition fight for Chloe who learned from the experience and is going to practice her competition style to win next time. First competition fight for Lisa who fought a much larger and more experienced fighter and she caught her with some excellent heel and axe kicks to the head. She is determined to practice and fight again next time. Dan, me, Nigel and Amy had one fight each and got beaten by better and more experienced fighters we will all practice harder for the next competetion and study the video tape to see where we can improve. James had a good fight and only just got beaten in the dying seconds, a good performance and his skill and techniques are improving with every fight watch this space for next time that's all I can say!
Well done to all of you, our All styles sparring night now has some STAR fighters.
Dr Steve Fenwick reached the 2nd round of the British Kyoshinkai Tournament
Details and photos to come

UK Meet, Stevenage, Saturday 28th September.
I was invited to the UK Meet by Robert Agar-Hutton and had a fantastic day training in Judo (Phil Storey ), Taikido (Shan Bryans and Duncan Ward), Okinawa Te (Richard McEvoy), Military unarmed combat (Defendo with Alan Cain), Street grappling (Craig Sennett) and Russian Systema (Robert Poyton). A fair old mix of styles and techniques and a facinating insight into other systems of fighting. Robert Agar-Hutton the organiser of the event suggested I may wish to instruct my self next year, we will have to see.
There was quite a lot of interest in Martial Arts fighting cancer 2002, with several of the Instructors offering support to what is a very good cause.
More photos and more information on the way.
Macclesfield Thai Boxing club have a disappointing day in Urmston
Unfortunately both Carl Bracegirdle and Kev Harrison lost there bouts on points on Sunday 29th Sept. Steve Wilkinson thought both of them were very unlucky not to get a more positive results, but that's life. I'm sure we can learn more from defeats than victorys so keep fighting.
The news wasn't all bad Danny came up trumps and beat his opponent on a technical knockout. Well done to you.
Lee did not compete due to personal reasons.
They have another contest in a fortnoght in Scotland. Good Luck and we look forward to a better result.

He has sent the following message to us to be displayed on the web site.
To Jon and all the members of Macclesfield Shuko Freestyle karate club and all those I have met through their affiliation with the club.
This is just to say a big THANKYOU to everyone for all the support and encouragement that I've received from the various clubs during my time here. It has been a pleasure and an honour to train with such accomplished martial artist. The experiences I have gained through training with you all has made me a better Martial Artist, a better fighter and more importantly a better person.
On a more personal note , I would like to thank Jon, Alastair Hall and steve Wilkinson for sharing their time, effort and knowledge with me and I hope I get to train with you all again in he future.
Finally, an extra thankyou to you Jon for everything that you have done for me and I hope that we can maintain our strong links, close association and our friendship.
Steve I am blushing, but I to hope we can remain friends and keep training together. As you know my personal circumstances have changed, but I am still concidering fighting at the British Kyokushin Kai Championships at Crystal Palace and also I am hoping to organise a third Martial Arts Fighting Cancer so hopefully that is two good reasons to keep in touch. All the very best, from myself and all of us at
Shuko Freestyle Karate and the All Styles sparring night.

CONGRATULATIONS
We send our congratulations to Alastair hall, Chief Instructor at Protea Kickboxing Association, on reaching his
3rd Dan Blackbelt on March 16th 2002. It takes a lot of determination to grade to this level, fighting through injury and periods of illness over a period of ten years or more is not easy and Alastair is a credit to his Association.


Kev Harrison & Carl Bracegirdle

VICTORY FOR MACCLESFIELD THAI BOXERS
Congratulations to Carl Bracegirdle & Kev Harrison in there Muay thai fight on April 13th up in Glasgow. The 13th turned out to be unlucky for both of their opponents as Carl and Kev both won with knockouts.
They have worked really hard for the fight and I know Steve Wilkinson their Instructor is really proud of them.
They were the only English fighters on the bill to get results up in Glasgow, which makes their wins even more impressive, after all our Scottish neighbours are not going to make it easy for us Englishmen.
I think Kev and Carl make a good team and hopefully they can keep each other motivated to keep improving as fighters, hopefully going right to the top.
I hope we will see them up at our All styles Sparring night again soon, it is an honour to have fighters of their quality at the session.
If you are interested in training with the Macclesfield Thai Boxing club, you can contact Steve Wilkinson on 434022 or see their page at MUAY THAI but don't forget Thai Boxing is full on and not for the faint hearted. Congratulations once again to the fighters and to the club on their victory.

Joe Tierney, tournament fighting course.
Sunday 17th March, 2.00p.m. - 5.00p.m. Macclesfield leisure centre. Presented by
Protea kickboxing Association and Shuko Freestyle Karate
Joe Tierney has been competing for over twenty years and a large part of that time has been at world championship level. He has been involved with and competed in Traditional Karate tournaments and semi contact kickboxing. He has been a club instructor and an International coach and some of his Karate / kickboxing based fighters have taken on the toughest challenge and entered the ring with Thai Boxers. Joe won Silver Medal at the world WAKO Championships, Gold at the European Championships and has won countless National Championships. Joe is presently one of the coaches for the WAKO international squad.


Shown above are Joe & Jamie along with Alastair and myself and Karthik, Nigel, Ken, Simon, Hadyn, Paul, Dave and Lynne who took the photo's.
Thanks to you all.

EVENT REPORT
For me there were two sides to this course, firstly the turn out was poor and obvious as Instructors Alastair and myself were dissappointed. We put a lot of effort into our clubs and when we organise a Course with a World Championship fighter we would expect 100% from our clubs.
Secondly, WHAT A BRILLIANT DAY! Joe and one of his top instructors Jamie, took us through a hard routine aimed mainly at Semi contact tournament fighting. I was really impressed with both Joe and Jamie, the power they generate is really impressive. Jamie imparticular creates enormous power from a 10 stone frame. After training with Macclesfield Thai boxing club I was starting to doubt whether we could generate as much power as they can with a our Karate kicks. I now know you can. As I thought 'It's all down to the training', my class gets sick of hearing it. Jamie seemed to get most of his power from the Karate snap by keeping his leg bent until the last split second and then snapping his kicks out, equally his punches had a great snap on them too, which impressed both Alastair's Kickboxers and our Freestylers.
Joe took us from techniques in air onto focus mitts and then through onto sparring.
All twelve fighters sparred with each other. I had mentioned to Joe how impressed I had been with his sweeps when I used to watch him competing, I had the pleasure of experiencing one of them - GREAT. He moved in at the right moment and with fantastic speed took my legs, down I went WHACK! I became one with the floor.
Anyway the course was a real success and every body had a great time.
So many thanks to both Joe and Jamie for a fantastic day.

January 26th 2002 Grading
Seven members of our team took their gradings in January. I am pleased they all passed, I'm sure on the old grading syllabus a couple would have jumped a grade, but that system no longer operates.
The fighters who took gradings are Simon Sewall
(4th kyu), Matt Beardmore (7th Kyu), Karthik Ravi
(5th Kyu), Billy Maddocks (8th Kyu), Charlotte Haldane (8th Kyu), Emily Day (8th Kyu) and Hadyn Roberts
(4th Kyu). Hadyn unfortunately could not make the photo shoot.
Congratulations to you all!

Dr Steve Fenwick receives Honary Dan Grade.
Steve Fenwick is the Instructor at the Macclesfield (AstraZeneca) Shidokan Karate Club.
He has been training with us at Shuko freestyle for over a year now and it has been a privelidge and an education to train with him.
He has probably been the highest attending fighter in the club and he has attended BNMA courses and Freestyle tournaments as well.
His technique is second to none (including me), and during sparring his full contact Karate techniques are hard to beat.
I would like to personally thank Steve for the support he has shown Shuko Freestyle Karate and where ever his career takes him I hope our Karate clubs can keep close ties.
I am honored to have had this chance to show the clubs appreciation.

Good luck in the Kyokoshin / Shidokan championships.
Sparring Night goes from strength to strength
Following the introduction of the all styles sparring night, on the first Monday in the month. The event has grown to a point where we will soon have to close the doors to new fighters. We have kickboxers, karate fighters, Thai and even one fighter from Jeet Kun Do, with a total of twenty five fighters touching gloves last month, which gave the club a really vibrant atmosphere. If you would like to join us please do so. The rules are generally semi contact, but we have several fighters who like to fight light contact and several who like to mix it a little, so fight to your level.
Shown right is Julie from Shuko freestyle. Julie is our senior Blackbelt and she is fighting Michael who along with his twin brother Simon and friend Richard joined the club just before Christmas 2001. We believe in fighters sparring from day 1. Why wait until purple belt or some notional skill level before sparring. A great deal can be learnt from sparring and what's more beginners can be a real handful and can have speed and flexibility on their side.
RULES
We don't really have a formal set of rules. You can fight traditional / semi contact with light contact and no leg kicks. Or you can fight hard semi contact (particularly body, I wouldn't want any knockouts - it's not the point) with leg kicks if you and your partner decide to go for it.
We have five levels of contact.
1. light (virtually no contact)
2. light semi contact
3. Semi contact
4.Heavy semi contact
5. Full contact - not without a referee. Nobody has requested this catagory yet. Heavy semi contact is plenty.
Fight at your level as long as you are responsible.SPARRING
The main rule is that you are responsible - if you or your partner says light contact, stick to that. Also - smile. We don't want anger, sparring night is a good chance to burn up everyday stress, improve technique and build up skill and stamina NOT HURTING PEOPLE.igh- smileer,

A non-event
I just thought I would mention a web site I just looked at called www.kickboxing.co.uk. It's an excellent site with one of it's heading's being 'Take all your complicated oriental martial arts and throw them out of the window. They're hopelessly obsolete.' Well this got my attention, I thought I better read on. Anyway it turns out that the web site is actually describing a recently rediscovered Ancient Roman art, designed for the gladiators. My favorite comment within the editorial is where the author states 'After all, these guys ( the gladiators ) fought to the death every day of the week'. Well no wonder the style died out hey?

IAN 'The Machine' FREEMAN
Ian 'the machine' freeman total fighting course: Sunday 13th January
EVENT REPORT

Ian Freeman is one those men who are born to fight. His whole personality seems to fit into the life style of a fighter. Teenage depression turned into anger and then into raw aggression which gave Ian the inclination to travel the world on the 'all in fighting circuit' taking on all comers. He's not fussy who he fights as long as they are capable of mixing it. The titles to his name include British Champion, Intercontinental Champion, Pancrase Superbout Champion, 2 x UFC Champion, F.N.C. World Champion, HooknShoot Superheavyweight Champion. Also: Too Hot Too Handle Veteran Russian M-1 Veteran
The course was not generally about highly technical moves, but more about general fighting skills, how to keep your partner pinned with your body weight as you move around him attacking any vunerable areas. He trains to fight and all his techniques have that realism that some more technical moves lack. Most of us have been on courses when moves have been shown and you get that sneaky suspicion that they look great......BUT? None of those but's on this course.
I am glad to say that Ian is a really nice guy, I think he must have unleashed that teenage aggression on his unfortunate opponents, I'm just glad it wasn't me! Shuko Freestyle Karate and Protea kickboxing hope to bring Ian to Macclesfield in the near future.
Many thanks to the IABC for inviting us on the course and thanks to Ian, it was a fantatic course.
2002 NEW YEAR MARTIAL ARTS COURSE
Saturday 5th January from 2.00p.m. - 5.30p.m.
Our course on the fifth of January went extremely well. A total of twenty five fighters turned up for the course which was pretty good concidering it was the first weekend after the Christmas break. The idea of the course was to give every body a snap shot of various martial arts, their training methods and techniques. It's a shame that no body came from Muay thai, although their training regime is without doubt the toughest, I believe there were many techniques on show at the couse which could transfer readily to any style, particularly in regard to self defence which you would think might be of interest, as I have mentioned on the philosophy page, I believe Martial arts styles have to take new techniques on board, firstly to keep training interesting and secondly to keep on learning as an individual. If the whole aim of martial arts is to kick and punch the hardest, then all you women, children, small people, individuals without huge physical strength and me - FORGET IT ! Of course this is not the case, if it were, I would suggest only 5% of the population would be capable of training within Martial arts, where as I would actually say, it was more like 95% of people can train if they want to, and become profitient. After all a poke in the eye can be more effective than a round house.
Anyway - the course. I went first with 'self defence against weapons' and so I didn't seem pescriptive I did an initial block and grab and then left the finishing off techniques to personal choice, whilst giving a few options. Steve Fenwick from full contact, Shidokan Karatecame next with the 'use of the shin block', always a great technique to learn. Steve Wilkinson from Muay Thai, then took the class through 'the use of the knee and elbow' - awsome, and the power generated is an eye opener for everybody. Alastair Hall from Potea Kickboxing went next with 'effective spinning techniques' and finally Hadyn Roberts from Macclesfield Judo club then demonstrated effective Judo techniques, particularly on the floor. I think every body who took part enjoyed the course.
Unfortunately Sensei John Nixon from Judo had to leave early and didn't get chance to demonstrate, which was a real shame. - So thanks to all the instructors and students who took part.

COMPETITION
Fighters Magazine open, October 14th 2001
Jon Tilley, Steve Fenwick and a new member Karthik Ravi entered the event with Karthik fighting first. He fought a Dan gradeWAKO junior team member, although this seems slightly unfair the cadet under seventeen section is an open belt
category. Despite this Karthik took the fight to the more experienced opponent and looked a star of the future, if he can avoid the usual pit falls for youngsters today (women) - only joking. Steve was up next and he fought bravely against a much bigger opponent as he was in the over 80 kilo section and his opponent was probably pushing 100 kilos. I came up last and was pleased with my performance even though I lost to the better fighter. I was lucky enough to receive a Bronze medal for my efforts, as I got a bye through my first fights.

Anyway better luck next time!

EVENT REVIEW
The instructors course in October was really interesting with all the instructors present having a chance to demonstrate and instruct their skills to the martial artists present. I demonstrated the simple self defence moves that we at Shuko freestyle believe in, with various other courses ranging from the highy technical skills of Ju Jitsu right through to Kung Fu. Alistair Hall, instructor at Protea Kickboxing and friend and colleague demonstrated distance within a fight situation and Sensei Steve Fenwick
from Shidokan 'knock down' karate, who regularly trains with us at Shuko Freestyle (shown right) demonstated the awsome 'low roundhouse kick'.
Steve and I also did a demonstration of knockdown karate for the use in a BNMAA video which showed the low kick in action and I've still got the bruises to show for it, I think the martial artists present were quite impressed with the brutallity of full contact fighting, I'm not shore I enjoyed it quite so much.
Also on the course we got a chance to meet Silvio Simac, World Tae Kwon Do super heavy weight champion and star of BBC2 programme 'Masters of Combat', who is a true gentleman and a pleasure to meet.
It was also a pleasure to meet Sensei Paul Griffin, the chief instructor and founder of the BNMAA.

MACCLESFIELD MARTIAL ARTS FIGHTING CANCER 2001
Thirty, two minute rounds of sparring.


Shown above are Hadyn Roberts (Macclesfield Judo Club), Steve Wilkinson(Macclesfield Thai Boxing Club), Staff Nurse from East Cheshire Hospice, Alastair Hall ( Protea Kickboxing Association), Jon Tilley (Shuko Freestyle karate), Janet Ward (Macclesfield Hospital MAST Scanner Appeal)

TOTAL - £3095
EVENT REPORT
'Macclesfield martial arts fighting cancer' was started by Jon tilley in 2000 after the sad death of his Mum due to this horrible disease. This year as last all the funds were split between the East Cheshire hospice and the Macclesfield Hospital MAST scanner appeal. In year 2000 we raised £945 and this year we hoped to double that figure, we have, as you can see well exceeded our expectations. Due to the generosity of our sponsors and the incredible hard work of are fighters, not just on the day, but in their fund raising efforts.
Our main sponsors were AstraZeneca, Independent Insurance, Baxenden Ltd, Milchem Processing Ltd, Pechiney UK and ZigZag Plc.
It was a fantastic event with fighters from a total of six martial arts clubs taking part.
Shuko Freestyle karate, Macclesfield Muay Thai, Protea kickboxing association and Macclesfield Judo Club were the main clubs taking part, but Ben Leadbeater from Kenshinkan Karate and Steve Fenwick from full contact Shidokan karate taking part as individual fighters. Steve actually trains with Shuko Freestyle on a regular basis, but runs his own club at AstraZeneca.
Ben was extremely brave, he was informed about the event by one of our students and turned up on the day with no prior knowledge of any of the other fighters and took on all comers, a fantastic show of spirit, made more impressive as he has been training for less than a year.
The Thai Boxers were generally on good behavior, but there were still some anxious looking semi contact fighters before the event. I made the mistake of sparring with Instructor Steve Wilkinson for the first round and ended up with a bruise in my fore arm the size of an egg with twenty nine rounds to go.
I generally took the decision to stay light and relaxed and fight the Thai's on my toes, moving and jabbing and using movement to disrupt my partners rhythm - this does not mean run away, before you start thinking that, it was also reasonably effective at remaining injury free. A few of the Thai's ( Gaz & Steve) seemed to go for it a couple of times and I saw out the corner of my eye a series of huge kicks and punches going in - OUCH!
I was proud of all our fighters and Alistair Hall's Protea Kickboxing association as I believe we carried our selves with dignity against full contact fighters. Macclesfield Judo Club also got stuck in with the adults putting gloves on and mixing a few punches with the rest of us. Several younger Judoka took part and an hour of grappling is hard work, so great respect to them.
If you are interested in taking part next year or sponsoring the event please contact us.

Strike and Grapple Course. Sunday 22nd April.2001
I would personally like to thank Sensei Chris Sharpe ( Crewe Judo Club ) for taking the course on Sunday 22nd April, it was a great course. Thanks also to Steve Wilkinson ( Macclesfield Thai boxing ) and Alistair Hall ( Congleton Kick Boxing ), who along with their students really made the course a wonderful day. We had a total of twenty five taking part and I believe all of them had an informative and enjoyable day.
Chris took us through a combination of break falls, throws, ground work techniques and fighting techniques. Then for the last hour of the course Chris split the students into two halves and our Shuko Freestyle club joined the Thai Boxers. I often talk about the Reality of Martial Arts, and this hour was REALITY. I grappled with several fighters and the energy levels were incredible, within a couple of minutes I was tired with several more bouts to come. We then went onto standard sparring plus take downs and again the only way I can describe the experience was frightening. Tony from Thai who is over fifteen stone ( that's muscle ) , luckily gave me a second chance when I caught him with a hard shot.
One of the younger Thai fighters brimming with enthusiasm nearly took my head off, which is not something I enjoy, but if I wish to gain the respect of my students and hopefully other clubs as well I take the tougher side of Martial arts with a smile and try to learn from the experience. It is difficult to fight
hard (almost full contact) when you train at semi contact and even lower levels, but this very difficulty is a learning process in its own right and a strong support for training in different styles out side your own. An example of this is when I was grappling with Steve the instructor at Thai, I would say the honours were even, where as when ever I've had the chance to sparr with Steve he has knocked me round like a rag doll. To me this makes me want to learn more about ground fighting to help combat better punchers and kicker. The essence of our Strike and Grapple course. Thanks again to Chris. If you would like to view the original poster click below.
Shuko Freestyle Karate

On the 18th of March Sensei Jon Tilley finally took his 2nd dan Black belt. Jon took his 1st Dan back in 1993 with Sensei Alfie Lewis, but it has taken eight years to organise his next grading.
Shown with Jon are Jerry ( left ) and Christian ( Centre ) and I think you would agree that this photograph highlights what a wonderful pursuit Karate really is. What other sport or past-time could attract such an age range of individuals, Christian is eleven and Jerry --- well lets just say Jerry has been training in Judo and Karate for forty years, it is a wonderful achievement to reach his dan grade.
We have a club grading planned for March 24th and then the next push will be for this years charity event, which is planned to be thirty two minute rounds of sparring scheduled for July and in aid of the MAST appeal.

Last year (2000) Shuko Freestyle had an interesting year. We changed associations, joining up with the BNMAA ( The British Martial Arts Association). This has opened up many new avenues of exploration in our Martial Arts world. Courses are now available in styles as varied as full contact shoot fighting, right through to Tai Chi.
We also did a Charity event in aid of Macclesfield Hospitals (MAST) Appeal and the East Cheshire Hospice. This was in reaction to the sad death of Mrs Pat Tilley the mother of Jon Tilley, founder of Shuko-Freestyle, due to cancer.
The event was done in conjunction with Macclesfield Thai Boxing Club and between us we managed to raise £945.
