With the upcoming West Georgia Invitational Tournament scheduled on Sept 9, it may us think back to one of the very first IKKU Tournaments held in the late 80's. Soke Ruiz performed both Katsu-Ryu Kempo and Bunkai for the audience on that day. Here are a few pics of Ruiz performing Bunkai on Bulldog Kelley, the Uke for the event.
