Sparring and drill highlights from the Chicago 2026 training seminar.


The sparring and drill style was like a mix of aggressive push hands crossed with standard sparring, focusing on practicing the fundamental principles of BajiQuan; we where encouraged to add our own flow into the mix, hence the Kyokushin Karate kicks. From the instructor to my fellow trainees, it was a great time and opportunity to learn and practice. If anyone has the chance, I highly recommend it!

I combined the most Japanese stuff with the most American stuff to celebrate the 4th of July!
Adult sized Asahi beer with a firework called “fountain dew” made up to look like a Mountain Dew soda can, coupled with an Americana shirt I got at Don Quijote in Japan to accentuate the red chucks and blue jeans. Nailed it! Of course, it wasn't much different to how I dress every day..
Also I got suckered into an hours-long giant Jenga game... that I won.


An awesome 4th of July!

This is the add for the online course that was put together from the Chicago BajiQuan training camp from a couple weeks back. If you can't get out to Manhattan to train with Sifu Vincent Mei, or go to his training in person, I highly recommend checking it out! You can also catch his youtube videos here:

From the description:


“Missed the live seminar? Now's your chance to experience it! Over 6 hours of captivating 2-day deep dive into the combative side of Bajiquan — covering strikes at long/mid/short/no range, footwork, defensive techniques, kicks, and takedowns. Introduced and drill a wide range of combinations, all grounded in authentic Bajiquan fighting strategy and the true Baji state of mind. Following its success in the UK and Chicago, this is one seminar you won't want to miss.”

Continuing my rounds, Back in Japan!
Some pics from around Kyoto:


Kinkakuji - the golden temple, traipsing around Gion / Hanamikoji, a fancy wagyu dinner, and hiking up the disgustingly crowded Fushimi Inari Shrine and upon making it to the summit a butterfly landed on my head!
