Through the Okami Kai curriculum and additional seminars and events, he has acquired some ability in aikido, judo and jujitsu.
He has studied the use of sai, nunchuku, tonfa and bo as weapons. He has completed the On Guard Defense and Control Tactics Training Program becoming a Basic Level instructor. In addition, he is an instructor of the Li’l Dragons Karate program at Okami Kai.
Sensei Wally Blacklock believes that “perfect” practice makes perfect and that skills are built one on another. He realizes the importance of training seriously and often.
He has come to fully appreciate this in his work as a psychoeducational therapist and as a student in karate. He works tutoring academics with children and young adults that have fallen behind at school or have developmental disorders and delays.
