Boa Tarde,
Eu sou o Professor Francisco de Lima Bezerra, 4º Dan Shotokan, Presidente da CBKB - Confederação Brasileira de Karatê Budô. Moro em Teresina - Piauí - Brasil.
Assisti ao seu vídeo e fiquei muito impressionado com a sua vontade de viver e, isso nós devemos a essa preciosa Ater Marcial que é o karatê, Independetemente, de Estilo o linhagem, o karatê é um exemplo de vida. Meus parabéns. Espero que entre em contato comigo. OSS! Sensei.
Wow. I thank you for posting this. I have been in a wheelchair all my life because I was born with Spina Bifida (a neurological birth defect.) I am 16 years old now. And I have always wanted to find a way to do martial arts. I tried Tae Kwon Do. But my teacher died of cancer before I could graduate from white belt. Thank you so much for posting this.
Dear friend. Excume my English.
I undertand you. I think that you love the martial arts and you are looking for somethink over there a kick, you are looking for the soul of Taelkwondo.
I know there are other martial art that you can practise better like Aikido (may be)
You should ask a goog sensei.
I practised Karatedo a long time ago, then a had broken my knee but always I think to go back. I propose you a solution. Good Luck.
golly what a good person
Oh my god.. Thats a real SENSEI!
Ossu!
THANKS!!!!!…… I have never seen martial arts kind of display or show off.. as I said it's been a part of me… I'm going back but I may change from TAEKOWNDO to KARATE DO as as I said now I am 44 and half years old… my bad leg (the one with polio) hardly can hold my body so it will be better karate do as I will be able to use more hands than feet…I know it will be harder than it was but the harder it gets, the harder I'll push..I didn't give up I just took a brake but never too late.
A true warrior spirit!
I train in Tang Soo Do going on 18 years. 7 years ago I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. PD took my flexibility but I am still training. Go back, start training. It doesnt matter how high you kick as long as you kick.
Best wishes for you!
and what are you waiting for
Maibe this is just the right time to start again.
:'(
amazing
holy dam.. what a great man and sensei… he walks the path of karate-do.. my deepest respect to this wonderful person. i had tears in my eyes while i was watching this..
='(
this man is a legend and an inspiration
OSSSSU!
I practice TAE KWON DO ITF for almost 10 years…. I had polio on my right leg when I was 11 months old….. it's hard specially because taekwondo uses more the feet than the fists (the opposite with karate do)… I have stopped because it's a bit difficult now I'm 44 years old…….. but still I can kick and do the puching…. I'm thinking about going back…. still I feel it was a part of me I want to carry on doing
+ niesamowita energia prawdziwa sztuka
Much respect for his dedication and spirit
he is such an awsome inspiration.
