Professor Lawrence Boydston

I started Kodenkan/DZR Jujitsu (1968) with Jim Nieto & continued (1972) with Jim Marcinkus.  I began formal Kodokan Judo (1972) with Brett Wood-Taylor (Kaigan).  I studied Filipino & Jun Fan Martial Arts (1980) with Dan Inosanto (Inosanto Academy).  I was introduced & studied many arts.  I trained with Cliff Stewart (WAR), Robert Temple (Kenpo), Chai Sirisute (Muay Thai),  Francis Echinard (Savate), and many others.  I use motion to counteract force.  I keep moving and go with the flow.  I enjoy the approaches of different martial arts to problem solving.  I hope to keep learning and sharing my experiences.
