Excuse the cross posting, was advised to post this here as not all people read the general part of the forum.

Thanks

From Tung-Fu.com

We are pleased to announce that John F Springer will
be hosting a seminar in the U.K.

The subjects to be covered are:

1. Upright striking and entanglement
2. Ground work overview.
3. Blade work and its overlap into empty hands.


This is not just a chinese martial art seminar but an
introduction to principles that feed directly into
your fighting hand independant of what your background
maybe. The seminar will be intensive, you will learn
a lot, feel free to bring a video camera for your own
personal reference. It will be conducted according to
Sifu Springers mantra of 'perfect practice'.

There will be an element of training with live blades,
attendes can bring their own blades, along with duct
tape to make the blades training safe.

Attendees are welcome to bring their significant other
to the seminar:

"It is of benefit for males to work with females as it
compels them to move with finesse - good technique as
opposed to testosterone fueled muscle.

It is good for females to work with males as it gives
them the proper feedback with regard to encountering
an aggressor having greater size - strength. It's a
"win - win" situation" - John Springer.

Is this 'John Springer' the same as Jack Springer who insulted half the world of martial artists, to whom there is no better but himself?

He was expelled from the LYS Pai by no other than his own master, grandmaster Lee Lien himself for bad mouthing and his attitude problems. When asked about this on a forum, Springer replied: "I quit because the LYS Pai did not live up to my high standards." Then just a few weeks later on an other forum: "If anyone wants to learn authentic LYS Mantis kung fu in the USA welcome to visit me, I teach it as it was passed down to me by grandmaster Lee Lien."

Hahahahahahahah, what a patetic clown who quits something because it does not live up to his high standards then just a mere few weeks later he is promoting himself with it.

Jack Springer has also made a number of challenged recently both personally as well as threatening to setup a fight, even fighting two guys at once on a martial arts event. There was even a promoter who would set this up on an event, however, Springer NEVER fulfilled his part of the deal.

Jack Springer has been kicked out of a number of forums for constantly insulting others. Have fun on his seminar - whoever cares.

I already have great teachers for stand up, ground and blade work, why should I traing with this guy? who is he? website address etc?

[X-Warrior]

You won't lose anything Paul by not attending his seminar, you're better off sticking with your own teacher.

He has no website, he used to have his own page on the LYS Pai website but it has been taken off since he was expelled. He is just going around, bad mouths everyone on forums and challenges people but never actually fulfills any of them. He was expelled from his Pai for good reasons.

Springer is a no life loser, I believe he was banned from this forum as well. Since he got kicked out from the school he represented in the US, he runs around like a goat separated from the herd by a wolf, trying to make ends meet. He sets up seminars to milk unsuspecting victims. He needs to pay his bills too .

X-Warrior, I think you conjure an image that is far from accurate. JFS has one helluva impressive CV.
