GinnyNguyen.com is very pleased to sponsor The Complete Works of Isshin Ryu Karate & Kobudo DVD Series by two talented martial artists and authors, Michael & Richard Nguyen. Hope you join us to support their long and exciting video project.

" I have had the opportunity to watch Michael & Richard in competition and their techniques in both kata and sparring are excellent. Just as important is their fine example of sportsmanship and maturity. I would highly recommend this video to the serious Isshinryu practitioner and especially to the young karate-ka, as they set a good example of what it takes to be a dedicated student." ~ Grandmaster Tom Lewis (Wyoming) - Isshinryu First Generation Karate-ka of Tatsuo Shimabuku

" I was totally impressed, each move executed as I remember Grandmaster Don Nagle explaining and performing.  The timing of each move was precise, I have had the privilege of judging both of these fine martial artists, and their performance of kata is recommended as a teaching method for all.  As president of the DON NAGLE AOKAINC, I recommend these dvd’s as an aid to serious training of Isshinryu." ~ Grandmaster Ralph Passero (New Jersey)

"This project is an excellent example of what a karate-ka can accomplish with dedication and a lot of heart.  They show a very high level of performance skill in all areas.  I’m sure they will become a very valuable training tool in many dojos.   These videos are sure to help everyone from the novice to the most dedicated martial artist in refining both personal training and training methods.  I would highly recommend them to any martial artist, of any skill level." ~ Master Wayne Wayland (Virginia)

I am delighted that I have had the pleasure to get to know them and their family.  They are truly ‘role models’ " ~ Ms. Louise Cleary (Jake’s Grandma)
