Balicki 2006

Ron Balicki seminar at the weekend was AMAZING! We did Jun Fan/JKD, Silat, Kali, Muay Thai and Savate (there was Shoot wrestling too, but we thought it best to sit that one out.) This picture of Ron and Matt was taken fromSheriffs Flickr account.
Sheriff also has aBlog now, where you can read about Balicki and Scott Bakula, and all the other important stuff from the weekend.
I've been striken with a cold and just found out that all my work has to be handed in on Friday (I thought I had another three weeks, but apparently not) So I ain't got time for blogging.
Check out Paul Rainey's site, he's posting rare old work up during April and his work is ace, so it's well worth a visit.
Also, If you want to help build a cinema, read the extended entry to find out how you can get involved.

S t a r & S h a d o w C i n e m a - BUILDING FESTIVAL
10-24 April
True to our history of being a cinema run by the audience, now we are asking
punters to help build the new cinema!
We now have the lease for the new cinema building (on Crawhall Rd) but need
to do a lot of work inside. Over two weeks people from across the region and
the country will be volunteering to build and fit the insides of the new
Star & Shadow Cinema. This is your chance to get involved and help make the
cinema what you want it to be. Basic training, tools, sustenance and
accommodation are all provided.
INTERESTED? please contact us to let us know which days, afternoons or
evenings you are available for over the fortnight of 10-24 April. Or come
along to the Open Forum on Saturday 8th.
