Combat Cane Seminar with Guro Joel Huncar (Oct 24–25, 2026)
Hello!
It is with great enthusiasm that I would like to invite you to an exclusive two-day combat cane seminar that we are organizing in Wavre this October. We have the honor of welcoming Guro Joel Huncar from Canada, who will be delivering an intensive program alongside Master Serge Beelen and C.F.I. Master Thierry Thirionet.
This is a unique opportunity to sharpen your skills, from beginner to expert, and to take a deep dive into both crook top self-defense and weapon transitions with the ball top cane.
When: October 24 & 25, 2026
Location: Complexe Sportif de Wavre
We are limiting the group to a maximum of 30 participants to ensure quality and personal guidance. If you would like to join us, I recommend registering before June 30 to take advantage of our "Early Bird" rate.
All details regarding registration and the program can be found here.
Please let me know if you are interested, and I will send you the full details for payment and registration. It would be wonderful to see you there!
Best regards,
Master Ziggy.
