Hall-of-Fame Grandmaster Hausel and his students again showed why they are <b>masters of Karate and Kobudo demonstrations</b>, with a 2016 demo at the Pavilion in Carefree, Arizona. The group demonstrated Okinawan kobudo and Japanese samurai arts along with Okinawan karate and self-defense. The group took the stage proving how awesome martial arts can be. Soke Hausel stated that the highlight of the program was two senior students, husband and wife and grandparents - Sensei Bill Borea and Sensei Paula Borea. "They definitely stole the show and the crowd fell in love with the antics of the two". At the end of the demonstration, Soke Hausel gave up his manhood to a demonstration of Shitai Kori (body hardening) where Sensei Paula Borea, 3rd degree black belt, punched Soke Hausel in the solar plexus, struck him in the Adam's apple, and then <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8cYvl-W9cw">kicked</a> him in the groin.<br />

Part of the charter of <i>Seiyo No <b>Shorin-Ryu Karate </b>Kobudo Kai</i> is to educate the public on the benefits, traditions and history of Okinawa <b>karate</b> and <b>kobudo</b>. To accomplish this, members from various dojo of our traditional <b>karate</b> association periodic present public <b>martial arts</b> demonstrations, self-defense courses, clinics, lectures, benefits and interviews. This is in addition to our members (from beginner to the highest ranked black belts) training in a variety of traditional <b>martial arts</b> each week at the Arizona Hombu dojo in Mesa.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>
In March, 2016, members from the <b>Seiyo Hombu Dojo</b> presented a 30-minute demonstration on traditional Okinawan and Japanese <b>martial arts</b> for a benefit of <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PANDAS">Pediatric Autoimmune Neurological Disorders</a></i> that was held at the Carefree Pavilion in the city of <b>Carefree</b> at the northern edge of the <b>Phoenix </b>Valley.<br />
<br />
It was a cool Saturday evening for an exciting demonstration of traditional <a href="http://hojojutsu.blogspot.com/"><b>Japanese samurai arts</b></a>, traditional <a href="http://teicon.blogspot.com/"><b>Okinawa Karate</b></a> and <a href="http://az-kobudo.blogspot.com/"><b>Kobudo</b></a> (Okinawan weapons), <b><a href="http://self-defense-women.blogspot.com/">self-defense</a></b> and a display of <i><b>shitai kori</b></i> (extreme Okinawan body hardening). The <b>karate demonstration</b> followed a performance of <a href="http://www.kenkoshio.com/">Taiko</a> (Japanese drums) by Ken Koshio, and preceded an artistic performance by Jeff Zischke.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Members participating in the traditional <b>martial arts </b>demonstration ranged in age from 8 to 70 years in age and included 40% female members. The demonstration was narrated by Grandmaster Hausel, Hall of Fame martial artist and member of <i><a href="http://jukokai.com/">Juko Kai</a> </i>International, <i><a href="http://www.jukokai.com/authorized-zksbbr-sokeship-appointments.html">Zen Kokusai Soke</a> Budo Bugei Remnei</i>, and <i>US Soke Council </i>and also by Sensei Bill Borea. All of the attending members provided an excellent performance; but Sensei Paula Borea, in particular, stole the show with her magnetic personality. Both the audience and the karate performers had a wonderful time!</div>

<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: small;">There was another demonstration where </span><em>Sensei</em><span style="font-size: small;"> </span>Donette<span style="font-size: small;"> Gillespie and Soke Hausel demonstrated </span><em>Shitai Kori</em><span style="font-size: small;"> (</span><em>Juko-Ryu Kijutsu</em><span style="font-size: small;">), a form of body hardening. This was the last technique demonstrated at the </span><span style="font-size: small;">University of Wyoming basketball </span><span style="font-size: small;">half time. The two took the center of the court, and were surprised at what a great crowd </span>pleaser<span style="font-size: small;"> this was. </span><em>Sensei</em><span style="font-size: small;"> Gillespie first kicked Soke in the ribs with a very </span><em>hard maewashi geri</em><span style="font-size: small;"> (round house kick) - the thud of the kick echoed throughout the gym and many </span>ooooohhhs<span style="font-size: small;"> and </span>awhhhhhhs<span style="font-size: small;"> echoed from the crowd. Then </span><em>Sensei</em><span style="font-size: small;"> Gillespie took her stance to ready herself to kick Soke in the groin with </span>mae<span style="font-size: small;"> </span>geri<span style="font-size: small;"> (front kick). She took aim and the crowd went <i>'nuts'</i> with laughter, whistles, cat calls, etc. They probably didn't think they were going to go through with this. Soke then whispered to </span>Donette<span style="font-size: small;">, to kick him as hard as she could and try to lift him off the floor. At that point, the expression on her face was ferocious as if she wanted to take all of her life’s frustrations out in one kick. Soke couldn’t help himself and started to smile at her expression, and then she kicked him with all of her power. The crowd went crazy.</span></span></div>
