GARY DILL
Professor Gary Dill has the rare honor of being one of the few original students who trained in one of Bruce Lee's three JKD schools while Bruce was still alive and heading up the JKD training program. The Oakland, California School where Dill learned JKD, was known as: "THE JKD FIGHTING SCHOOL." Dill has been teaching Jeet Kune Do for over 49 years (1971-present), and is considered by many to be a nationally known authority in JKD today. He has written numerous articles concerning JKD for "Black Belt," "Inside Kung Fu," and other martial arts magazines. He has also authored a JKD training manual, and produced a comprehensive collection of JKD home study training DVD'S.

BILL HOLMAN APPOINTED TO SOKE-DAI IN BUSHIDO KEMPO
I’m proud to announce that Senior Master Bill Holman has been appointed to the position of Soke-Dai for the Bushido Kempo division. He is now one of the designated successors of Bushido Kempo. One of the requirements for Soke-Dai is being at most of the camps and being accessible in person for decisions and meetings regarding the organization. With this appointment comes the administrative rank of 8th Degree Black Belt under SDS. Soke-Dai Holman has been a dedicated, loyal member for 32 years and has proven himself to be highly capable to take on the responsibilities of being a Soke-Dai. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!
NEW SHIHAN APPOINTMENT
At Wintercamp, I announced that Master Karl Cockrum was appointed to the prestigious position of SHIHAN. Cockrum has been a loyal member and warrior with Street Defense Systems for decades. Being a Shihan means that Karl is now a part of the top leadership team, along with the Sokedais, which will take over the reins of this organization upon my death. This is not a promotion, but is a position of responsibility, and because of his dedication to me and SDS.
