Thanks everyone for the support.
I will email DeMille’s club about the poster. My suspicion at this time is that the poster was produced by Jacques Patinaude.
Krackie, if you could PM me an approximate year for the criminal charges I am sure we can find someone to go downtown and look it up in the public records. Since it is public, we will then be able to post the results here.
Email to DeMile sent. But I have also looked at the poster again,
And it definitely looks like it was produced locally by the Patenaude group.
Oh, and about Dictionary-69’s question. Yes just training Jiu-Jitsu indicates that one is a true bad-ass and fighting ability is no longer even a question. Dont tell Jacques that though, cause I am sure they will start advertising Jiu-Jitsu lessons by next year if they figure it out.
Askari, can you pm me?
Krackie for some reason I cant PM you. Perhaps you need a few more posts or to activate that function for the board. I’ve tried to PM you and the option isnt there.
You definitely have information that could lead me to stuff we all want to know.
If with a couple more posts you still cant PM, we’ll go to the throw away hotmail account as an option.
PM function is enabled after 11 posts.
There’s your answer then, throw away a couple of posts on this thread and then I can PM you.
Lets hope you don’t want unsolicited Fang Shen Do propaganda on that account!

Email sent. I have a JiuJitsu type email addy that you should receive mail from shortly.
Wow!! Congrats Askari. This is great.
You might want to check out the Anthony Robbins connection. Patenaude is, allegedly, a certified Anthony Robbins motivator. Robbins is into personal empowerment, firewalks, gettin-rich-schems, powersleep, and: selling vitamins etc, stuff that the Patenaudes are into as well. Robbins is basically part of a parasitic culture of “personal motivators” that somehow succeed in convincing CEOs that their employess need to take his workshops. My guess: the “little boy from Casselman” got sucked into this and makes his sifus sell Tony Robbins’ vitamins. I’ll try to find out if Robbins is also into sniffing dog shit.
The picture of the FSD-gang is wonderfull!! What supreme irony: they probably didn’t have a clue what this is gonna look like. The good, the bad and the ugly! Note that the two women are among the meanest looking, and father and sons are trying hard, but somehow they seem to be thinking: we are fakes! Brian Paquet looks like the Kung Fu-nazi. Only a few are actually smiling, perhaps these are the good guys who haven’t realized that they are getting screwed by the master. By the way, Linda (is that her real name or is this just a Bruce LEE thing???) and Christine both have a black sash. Seems to be a total joke! I even heard that Christine was simply given her black sash by daddy. At the training camp I attended, all the sifus/instructors participated, except her. She was there but, like her mother, seemed to be only in charge of the food and water part.
I also heard the rumors about JP’s criminal record. Wasn’t there somebody from the West Coast early on in the FSD forum thread mentioning this? Well, shit always ends up floating on the surface. So, we’ll find out eventually.
Keep on trucking!
In addition to the Anthony Robbins style business practices it seems that movie-making is also on Patenaude’s plate.
Check out this little gem that has Jacques Patenaude and Martin Patenaude listed as Executive Producers.

From the production quality and look of the actors this looks like it will be one bad film.
His production company is Red Dragon Films and the link takes you to the same page as fangshendo.com, learnkung-fu.com and his other URLs.
I wonder if Patenaude is offering ‘special’ students an opportunity to ‘invest’ in this blockbuster?
The female lead, Anna Jaeger, looks hot. Too bad it appears she is knocked off early in the film (hence the ‘revenge’ plot).

Wow, they dont have a Kung Fu Schools they have an industry…
I think Pain Killer is a a good name from the looks of it as it is not so much a title as a suggestion to take some numbing medication (perhaps morphine?) to sit through this low budget no plot puppy.
Perhaps Brain Killer would be a good alternative as I am sure it will assualt a few brain cells.
Red Dragon films, huh? There is a member named Red Dragon who has not posted yet, but lurks on the FSD threads. Could it be JP himself?
Well I suppose he’s entitled to hang around and listen, but like a small child at the grown up table perhaps he’d be wiser to wait until spoken to.
I’ve tried to illicit an invite to train out of Dictionary69 but perhaps I’ll address the Great Red Dragon…
Oh, Sifu P would it be cool if I dropped in on a class here and there, you know just to get a feel for it?

red-dragon here!
Hi everyone, sorry this is not “Grandmaster Sijo Jacko, 10th Dan of someone elses system which I am now calling my own”. I am however a former FSD, aka Wing Chun Do, aka, Century 2000, aka Modern Wing Chun student who has taken a great interest in this thread. The name red-dragon is purely coincidental.
Hi Red-Dragon,
Welcome to the threads. What is Century 2000?
Isn’t that a real estate company?
That would be Century 21 …
Century 2000 would be … umm well the 1900’s . How ground breaking … * yawns *
*edit *
But lets not derail this awesome thread with more _ing _un Bullshit please …
Century 2000 Kung Fu was the name they used for a short while in the 90’s.
Were you a student through the various phases, culminating in FSD, and if so can you tell us about what changes were made for the style to become FSD?
