Jissen Issue 6

Dear Jissen Magazine Subscriber,

 
The sixth issue of Jissen is now ready for download! As a Jissen Subscriber you’ll always get one of these newsletters sent to you after the latest issue has been uploaded. Hence you’ll always be one of the very first people to be able to download and read the magazine!
I’d like to begin by apologising for the delay in getting this issue to you. I’ve been so busy over the last few months that it became obvious that I was not going to get this issue finished on time.

 
Helen (my wife) picked up the slack and this added in another slight delay while she got familiarised with all the typesetting software. When you see the magazine, I think you’ll agree Helen as done a great job and the good thing is that the magazine is no longer entirely reliant on me for progress. The 7th issue is already being put together. I am therefore sorry for this delay, but the good news is all future magazines should be as regular as clockwork.

 
If you have a look at the contents list below, you can see that this issue has been well worth the wait! We have a great interview with Dave Turton, an article by world renowned realist Geoff Thompson (with more to come from Geoff in future issues) and articles on a whole host of subjects including multiple opponents, improvised weapons, kata application, flow drills, ancient European fighting arts and even how to fight a horse (kind of)!
I hope you enjoy this latest issue, and please visit

All the best,


Iain Abernethy (Editor)
