Decoration from the Emperor of Japan for Pascal Krieger
On the 11th of June, Pascal was awarded the "Order of the Rising Sun, Gold and Silver Rays".
He wants to share this honor with all his teachers, students and friends.
Have a look at pictures from the ceremony and read the speech of acceptance.
The way of the stick
Because of the numerous queries to which no answers were given due to the fact that the book is out of print since 2002, a Web specialist has scanned all the pages of the book. Pascal Krieger has not asked for this website. He asks everyone reading this to be well aware that the techniques shown in the book should not be taken for granted. Jodo evolved quite a bit since 1994, the year Nishioka Sensei, an early student of Shimizu Sensei, became Technical Advisor of the IJF. This book is uniquely a reference.
