A message specifically for eawoodall but I'd love to hear from anyone else too

Please could you tell me about you experiences of the martial art of Kuta?
I have read in other posts that you have practiced it for years, how did you come across it?

Cheers.

kuta is allegedly an egyptian martial art. i learned it in 1969-1970 from DokLee( not his real name). I am the oldest living practitioner still active. I know two other men who trained before me, but neither have done it in years.

Phil Elmore

No, you didn't. Lee Crull published his Hikuta materials in the early 1990s and their sum total doesn't exactly represent a lifetime of wheezing effort in the field of self-defense.

Everything you could ever want to know about this contrived exercise in separating you from your allegedly ancient Egyptian po

of course phil continues in ignorance listening to people who were not there. who never saw the person in a wheelchair on the tonight show in the mid 1970s doing hikuta, and calling it that. who never trained when i did, even before drbill trained and i trained from people other than dok lee.
but sad that so many in traditional martial arts have to spend so much time trying to disprove the facts. gotta wonder why they are so hung up on trying to disprove hikuta, i mean if it really did not work would they bother? would they care? as i have said before if an enemy was in ignorance about a martial arts style that did not train people in anything would you tell your enemy? would you correct the mistake? are they trying to be so fair and kind that since they believe hikuta teaches nothing that they want everyone to know it? or are they just trying to get more students paying them big bucks for years of constant income for them every month. week after week? hum i wonder? do you wonder? i do not teach currently, but i have offered on occassion to help some lessor students in various arts, cannot seem to find anyone who will actually take me up on the offer though. sadly i try not to teach the ungrateful. phil's opinion can never change the facts, just himself.

Phil Elmore

It never happened and you know it never happened, or you'd provide a copy of the video.

You need serious mental help.

i do not work for the tonight show, or the network that it is on, or was on at that time if different. i did not own a vcr in the mid 70s, nor did i know in advance that a man in a wheelchair would be on with j carson that night. i had no way to film it, or did at that time or do now care to prove anything to anyone. if you cannot write a letter and ask the people who have the proof then you do not want to know. if i presented any video, someone would think it is fake. better to let those who i do not know present the facts.

Phil Elmore

If it had ever really happened, somebody would be able to produce the footage, or verify with some sort of transcript that the episode had taken place. It didn't. It never did. You're either lying or, in your delusions, passing on things that you want to believe. Either way, you need help.

the problem is phil, that a fellow student mentioned to me, that the man was on the tonight show, after i saw the show. so i know atleast one other person who saw it at the time. that student did not know i knew hikuta already, and offered to teach me what he and his dad had learned from dok lee, that was the week the man in the wheelchair was on the tonight show.
i let that student and his dad believe they were teaching me hikuta, but when dok lee showed up and told them not to teach anyone, or say that they were doks ever again, dok lee thinking i had only been learning hikuta for a very short time was not ready for me. he wanted to see what i knew of hikuta, and i defeated him. and he (thinking i had only been doing it a short time) said i and only i was worthy of the title of DOK.

you phil presume alot when you in ignorance make the mistake of thinking something you did not see did not happen. did you see sally fields get hit with a whipped cream pie, because she did on another episode of the tonight show, and then she repaid in kind. did someone sign the declaration of independence you did not see it with your own eyes, so do you believe it happened? do you believe in magnetism? you cannot see magnetic lines of force, but they do exist don't they? science seems to think so. can you see air? but your lungs might notice if there was not any, humm? ah, what is the point, you have your mind made up, you won't listen. good luck. don't write.

Phil Elmore

No, you haven't seen it and a fellow student didn't mention it to you. It never happened. Until you can provide a transcript from the show or a clip of the video, you will never have any proof that it did. Your analogies are meaningless; your logic is deeply flawed. The fact is that Hikuta is a made-up martial art that was created in the early 1990s and has none of the historical credibility -- in ancient times or in contemporary media -- that Hikuta practitioners try to pretend it has. It worries me that there are people willing to embrace such an obvious sham. With luck, anyone reading this will see for themselves how obviously unstable you are and will understand your point of view for what it is -- a complete fantasy.

Yes, Phil, Mr. Woodall is quite entertaining. You missed the earlier fun when he had his picture up as his avatar. The image showed a man that spent much more time laying on a couch and eating fast food than a master of a martial art. I mean who would be more apt to believe - a guy who looks like Bruce Lee or someone who looks like Orsen Welles?
