Football Coach Uechi-Black Belt

Post by KerryM »

Does anyone remember who the football coach is- that also trained in Uechi?

He is a professional football coach- not high school...

Curious about some of the training football teams do and how it can relate to sanchin- and if anyone else has some insights on that please feel free :)

Thanks-

I don't know about coach but there was a professional football player who was a Uechi blackbelt during his playing days, Andre Tippett. Now he is a 4th degree blackbelt teaching Uechi Ryu.

Kevin Guse would a good source about relating Sanchin to football training. I'm not sure how much he is participating on the forums at the moment though.
