Leider habe ich gerade folgende traurige Nachricht erhalten:

I received the following notification from Ernie Boggs, Sensei, and thought I should pass it on to you:

The Great Grandmaster Professor Wally Jay is gone! Around 2:30am May 29, 2011 the martial arts lost one of it's greatest masters of all time as he passed peacefully to the other side. He will be greatly missed by so many around the world, I know I will miss him more than anyone could ever imagaine.

PLEASE allow his family this personal time they need by not calling the home. Information will be posted on smallcircle.com (http://www.smallcircle.com) and Friends of Wally Jay (http://www.Friendsofwallyjay.com)

Professor Jay was truly a pillar of the jujitsu and martial arts community throughout the world. I had the pleasure of working with him numerous times over the past three decades. Prof. Jay was a very giving and generous sensei who also continued to grow in the art. He also had a certain charm mixed with a good sense of humor. While the martial arts community will miss Prof Jay we will continue to remember him as we train and gorw in the art and his teachings.

ist ein schock. wally jay hatte mit seinem "small circle" ansatz großen einfluß auf meine persönliche sichtweise aufs juju. zudem hat er sehr starken einfluß auf remy presas (gründer modern arnis) und zt. auch auf dan inosanto gehabt und damit auch auf einen großteil der fma und einen teil der jkd szene.

Rest in peace.

Ich habe Prof. Jay nicht persönlich kennen gelernt, aber seine Sicht auf das Jiu-Jitsu hat mich beeindruckt.
