Didn’t he learn from an American Marine? Can’t remember the guys name…could be wrong.
He learnt judo from Donn Draeger.
Thanks… couldn’t remember his name. Boy, I got to find my video. I think my daughter taped Sailor Moon over it (kids).
Thanks Pat good read. Amazing.
Oh man salivates What I wouldn’t GIVE to be able to train like that …
With your shirt off?
No, that MUCH. If all the hot guys in the gym trained with their shirts off, that would be enough for me.
Draeger was in the right place at the right time with the right friends. What an opportunity.
In Robert smith’s book: Martial Musings, you can read many anecdoted about Draeger and Blumming AND some of the greatest internal kung fu and judo men of the 50’s 60’s and 70’s.
Its a great read.
Gotta get that book. Thanks Ronin69
