Willy Van de Mortel SeminarsMr Willy Van de Mortel (6th dan) conducted sparring seminars in New Zealand between the 2nd and the 7th May 2005. The 2004 seminars were described as "AMAZING" and everyone got a great deal out of them. The ITFNZ Technical Committee in conjunction with the NZ Team Management has combined resources to bring you these seminars - available for students of all ranks. Mr Van de Mortel taught a range sparring skills - not all specifically for tournaments. This helped with sparring in general, confidence with free sparring and will give you specific techniques to help improve your sparring. Photos from the first seminar at Nibun ITF
