Martial Arts Today TV Interview & Demo Professor "Vee" Florendo Visitacion. Shared with Jumpshare

I do not have many old photos of me as a young black belt. This is one, however. I was fighting full contact in Europe 35 years ago. I remember those African Francophones giving me hell. I was 200 pound soaking wet. They were very challenging fighters. Strong, fast, and proficient.

Prof. David B. James and I had a long conversation about the old "famed" Atlantic Ave (Brooklyn) Dojo this morning. Many of the black belts who were taught by then Chief Instructor Luis "aka Lou" Ferrer at the Clayton Place (Brooklyn) Dojo like Senseis Mike, Sae, John, and Mahaliah all followed us to Atlantic Ave in '88 when it opened.

There is only one recognized Vee Jitsu Ryu, Vee Jitsu Tae, and Vee Arnis Jitsu Dojo in Delaware. The instructor does not have an open school. Training is by invitation only. There are certain techniques universal to Vee Jitsu practitioners. The Dimensions are one. The Phases are another. The famed Taes the final piece of the puzzle. If a person claims to teach Vee Jitsu, ask her or him to demonstrate, and publicly post the techniques. 'nuff said...
