About Jon Bluming
Jon Bluming is a leader of
Europe’s International Budo Kai Kan Foundation. Born in Holland 1933, he
is a veteran of two tours in the infantry in Korea. After receiving 3-dan
in judo in Holland, he went to Japan in 1959, where he lived until 1961.
His instructors included Donn Draeger, Mas Oyama, Kenji Kurosaki, and Ichitaro
Kuroda, and he is graded in judo, karate, iaido, and jodo. He is a former
coach of the Belgian and Dutch national karate teams, and his internationally-known
students include Olympic judo champion Willem Ruska, world sambo champion
Chris Dolman, and current RINGS champion Dick Vrij.
"What I teach," says Bluming,
"is neither Kodokan judo nor Kyokushin Kai karate but instead a mix of
one-third karate and Thai boxing, one-third throwing techniques – I teach
seven different throws – and one-third groundwork. That altogether is the
full circle of unarmed fighting. That is not arrogant, that is the truth."
He was featured in The Learning
Channel documentary Martial Arts: The Real Story (Pacific Street
Films, 2000) and "The Beast Lives," Taekwondo Times, November 2001.
His own recent English-language publications include:
