Times Advocate, 1995-11-01, Page 15Kickboxer Competitive kickboxer gives students a practical look at the sport Chris Skalkos T -A staff EXETER - Ron Tyndall has taught many students the martial arts over the years. Some of those students have achieved their black - belts and have gone on to es- tablish schools of their own, while others continue to study and com- pete. One of his students returned re- cently to pay respects to Tyndall and his karate school. Brad Fowler, a competitive kick - boxer, was in Exeter Tuesday night putting on a kickboxing dem- onstration at South Huron District High School. Fowler, a native of Goderich, ob- tained his blackbelt in karate under Tyndall in 1991 before studying kickboxing. Currently, he is teach- ing karate in Lucknow with his partner Leo Loucks, lightweight kickboxing champion from 1986 to 1988. In Exeter, there are a number of schools offering a variety of mar- tial art disciplines, however, people interested in studying kickboxing must travel out of town. Fowler's demonstration allowed the students in Tyndall's karate class and a handful of spectators, the opportunity to see what this unique form of martial art is all SPORTS gives demonstration Brad Fowler delivers a kick to his sparring partner Gary Fuoco during an open onstration at SHDHS Tuesday evening. about. As the name suggests, kick- boxing is a practical form of self- defense which combines karate with the punching techniques of a boxer.. "It's just like boxing only you get to use your feet," said Fowler. Kickboxing is different from most other fighting disciplines be- cause of it's aggressive nature. "In karate your first move is al- ways a block, rather than an attack like in kickboxing. It's more of an aggressive sport," said Fowler.
