Saturday, May 23, 2009, Don Wilson, called "The Dragon" was a guest in Haltern am See in the Kickboxing Center of the Sports World. With him came his friend and martial arts expert Bernie Willems.
I went with my Budo friend Marco Gevatter and three other Budokas from Bremen to take part in this unique highlight in the martial arts scene.
For three hours, Don Wilson showed his first-class knowledge of martial arts and kickboxing. Don, not only 11-time world champion in kickboxing, but also an excellent teacher and seminar leader, knew how to instruct and inspire the participants of the workshop, who came from all over Germany, in a great way.
Bernie Willems translated from English with absolute skill and precision.
Don gave an overview of the techniques that had guided him through his own career. In addition, he lectured on his view of real self-defence, which even enriched old hands from the Budo scene and from the security industry with new insights. Personally, I give this seminar the smooth grade of "One". Thanks to Don Wilson and Bernie Willems!
