RIP Freddie Oversteegen

You will recall the tales shared about the 'girl with the red hair' and her two comrades. RIP Freddie.

About This Blog

Jan de Jong is a world renown martial artist who pasted away in 2003. I was a student and instructor of De Jong's, and I am proud and humbled to also say I was a friend of De Jong's.

I wrote a blog titled Kojutsukan that was originally designed to introduce the public to my work associated with the science behind the tactics and techniques taught by the martial arts and used in violence generally. Given my association with De Jong, I received many requests for more information on the man himself. I had drafted a chapter on the 'school of Jan de Jong' in my originally conceived how-to book on the tactics and techniques of the jujutsu taught by Jan de Jong. So I posted the Jan de Jong story.

The Jan de Jong story is not just a story of the man himself. It's a story of his school of thought. Just as the school of Rembrant is a school of thought and does not refer to a physical entity, so the school of Jan de Jong refers to a school of thought that he developed during his life time.

An unintended consequence of posting the Jan de Jong story was (a) the amount of interest it generated, and (b) the information I received from De Jong's past which I had hitherto not been privy to. So I decided to write a blog dedicated to the school of Jan de Jong.
