When it comes to Martial Arts, people always want to know if it works and is it real(istic) and the only way to know for sure is to test it (and yourself). Sifu Novell Bell -and his art- has been tried and tested. From the vicious underground fights held secretly in New York’s Chinatown to China itself, Sifu Novell (The Black Taoist) is one of the rare few that can truly say that he has “been t...

I met Z Black after he was released from his last prison bid in 2014. I was introduced to him by ArchBishop Russell Davenport, a martial artist from Roosevelt Long Island, that knew -and was respected by- Z-Black from the time when they were young. I believe that the recorded conversation (i.e. interview) that we had that day is the first, the last and the only interview that Z-Black had ever s...

While working on an upcoming project, I ran across the footage from my initial interview with GM Dinkins. I realized, as I rewatched, that, at the time, I was so focused on the martial aspects of the various Grandmasters' lives, I clearly overlooked some of the personal pronouncements that they chose to share. In the case of Grandmaster Dinkins, of Brooklyn New York, his love and dedication to ...

    Im 28 years old. Seeing these men, to me is what epitomizes manhood GLOBALLY. These men, an the ones who came before them are the reason they attack are masculinity. You dont see this anymore from men in my generation an younger. It should be a master class as far as im concerned.

    I grew wit black in LB and he was a funny dude if you really knew him. He was good friends with my older brother. I remember when his name was poo poo and was terrifying Longbeach streets. Remember when he robbed the taxi, i was about 8 or 9 I ran into him in Downstate in the same dorm. Sad to say he was poor and because a booty bandit to anyone who was weak. Prison legend.

    I met sensei Rico guy in a peculiar way,while working as a flyer guy .I walked up to his studio,but there was no one at the desk,just a voice called from the backroom ,saying take off shoes. I took off my shoes ,and there I was ,in the back witnessing a private fighting lesson by a martial arts master . Later I stopped to look at the photos by the desk, and asked him about his school. Sensie talked to me like a friend he already knew . I was very honored ,cause the awards in his studio already told me who he was. One never knows in life.And I actually got to meet him a few more times after that. Sensie guy had a quiet strong aura about him

    • @thinmannventures
      @thinmannventures Місяць тому

      Thank you. It should be noted, that my original purpose in interviewing him was the martial arts/boxing angle. Back then, when I was doing the interviews, I was very focused on the goal, which was The Grandmasters of New York documentary, and didn’t want to get sidetracked by other issues and angles. I did, however, know that Zee’s story was bigger than martial arts and boxing so I knew I’d come back to it eventually. This is why I edited and uploaded this piece approximately 10 years after it was recorded. I have a lot of footage like that (from the other masters) that I’ve been going back over, since I never intended for my channel to be exclusively about martial arts. Thanks for checking it out; I’ve considered doing a follow up with some of the background behind the interview and also include some of the people that knew him (mostly from prison).
