Karate Canucks Conversation 028 - Sensei Perry William Kelly (Recorded May 20, 2024)
Sensei Perry William Kelly began his martial arts journey in 1966 at the age of nine studying Chito-Ryu Karate when he joined the Langelier Karate Dojo in Ottawa, Ontario, due to the fact that his father was a student there. A few years later, as a teenager, he began studying Sensei Georges Sylvain’s system of Can-Ryu Jiu-Jitsu - first under Sensei Sylvain and later under Sensei John Therien. Today he holds a 6th Degree Black Belt in that system.
In the years to come Sensei, Kelly would add Muay Thai, Inosanto Kali and Jeet-Kune-Do to the repertoire of martial arts systems in which he has earned ranks. He has competed internationally in Kumite tournaments and is also a fully-trained Corre...

Thank you very much for this wonderful interview. Both Mr. Therien and Mr. Theriault are true class acts and great role models. They both shared loads of invaluable wisdom with us the fans all over the world. Blessed are those who have the privilege to train directly under these fabulous gentlemen. I cannot thank them enough for what the have done to the world of martial arts. Sincerely wishing them good health and all the best.
hi did you ever meet gary spiers mario karate legend
Ladies with such talent , ambition and role models to boot! Keep it up. We seek your knowledge. Great podcast. Hope to meet some of you ladies on my journey in Chito Ryu. Sorry biased as well!
Excellent no fluff outlook to combat and training the basics. Reminds me of the Bruce Lee quote. "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times."
Wonderful role models for sure! Great podcast!
Great podcast!! Love the content, slightly biased as I'm with Chito Ryu as well. Tks again from NB
Hello 'WORLD'!..... At 83 now, I am 'delighted' to see 'someone' managed to save a copy and upload it for prosperity! .....In those days, save for the always amazing work by the NFB in Montreal, there was next to nothing being produced privately. / Most of our initial 16 mm copies were bought by the various police run organizations! Hallelujah for some Canadian History!
Canada's #1 icon, and a GREAT and caring friend.
Mr. Wolfe, you sir are true warrior. God bless and your entire family.
i joined his club in New Glasgow while I worked at Michelin Tire. I remember as beginners he was trying to see which beginners were serious. He worked our guts out! I have never done so many pushups etc class after class. Unfortunately, I changed jobs and went to Ottawa for a while. Never did pursue it farther.
That was a really fun listen . Seems we have allot in common . Great interview Charles…thanks ..🥋🇨🇦
i was a street kid (many fights) then a high school wrestler, then i became a martial artist (many styles) then i worked in the bars (many fights) then i went back to learn BJJ and Thai boxing (because it was more effective than martial arts) i am not a black belt in anything but i was on the more "effective fighter" side of the classes i was involved with...BJJ was eye opening (i threw alot of martial arts crap away after this introduction) then Thai boxing (i threw more crap away after this introduction)...then i got trained by Bill Wolfe...we have all been lied to and fooled by what is really effective and can you do it under stress (i threw almost everything away after being trained by Bill)...this is REAL fighting !!! no BS...it hurts to train (as it should to prepare you for reality) Bill will test you and your stamina and your will to fight and not quit (as he should)... you will be exhausted, you will be sore and you will (sometimes) be frustrated and feel out of your element...BUT you will learn to fight...period...you will be better than you ever were or better than you ever thought you could be !!! period...strong basics and hard training is Bill Wolfe's way and it works !!! thats all i can say...this works and i am better (more effective) than i ever was...i wasted many years and dollars on BS training...if you want to learn to protect yourself and truly be an effective fighter who is in control of his/her fear and emotions so you can perform under the stress and reality of the streets then there is only 1 instructor that you need to visit...its hard, it hurts, its frustrating, BUT you WILL become a better protector of yourself and your loved ones...thank you Bill and ill see you soon for another "core" session (look up at whwolfe.com what a "core" session is)...this is life changing and life saving training !!! i hope i didnt pontificate too much...lol
You literally sound like you’ve lived the exact same life as I have
@@NabilAbdulrashidComedy lol...i hear ya dude...if your ever in penticton BC go get some training with Bill
Well, what can I say other than what an interesting conversation and inspiring individual in Mr, W. H. Wolfe. Thoroughly enjoyed it and couldn't help but relate to a few of his experiences and of course, insites. Congratulations Charles san on another terrific interview conducted! 👏
When is the next one coming out.
We're lining up a few more now, so hopefully soon :)
Such a vast amount of information. I know I for one, will miss him around NS. Good podcast. Thanks for sharing.
An absolute legend.
Epic one to be sure! From Saint John Nb, lived in Rockwood Courts, currently study Chito Ryu. Your channel is great, keep them coming 👍 👏
A great teacher and a man of integrity. Excellent interview.
tell us the story of you and Tony fighting in high school
Hello Sensei Slocki. My name is Ricardo. My wife is Claudia Correia. she is a black belt in Slocki Ru.
Another great conversation on Karate Canucks, this one with my Sensei and his Sensei. Thank you, Sensei Banfield, for the service you are providing the martial arts community with your show
Awesome discussion
👍
Sensei Louise Provencher is a national treasure. Recognized in the Quebec National Assembly and the Canadian Karate Association Black Belt Hall of Fame, Sensei Provencher has a lifetime of contribution to the martial arts. You can look far and wide and never find a teacher so deserving of recognition.
Hi there,name's Roger Roy.Enjoyed the interview with Mr Slocki a lot .Sensi Slocki was my teacher back in the early 1970,s.I was at the Brampton club for about 3 years.I was the guy Sensi Slocki was kicking in the cover of the magazine he was showing in the interview.Mr.Slocki was a great teacher ,I was fully commited to his style .I fought in the first two full contact tournaments he put together in Brampton,then in Hamilton .I basically lived at the dojo ,so I got to know Mr Slocki quite well .Back then I use to studder ,so he would get me to teach the classes to help me overcome my speech problem.I got my brown belt through him.Working out with him was a great honor .Will always be grateful for all the time he spent with me as a student.Thanks Sensi Slocki.
I remember his FLYING SICCOR'S takedown ....... & I was at the Hamilton Tourney forgot the club but was at the DELTA area of King & Main St.
Kim Dunn and Kim Hooi Wong were my instructors and have had a huge influence on my life. As a student I always was in awe of both men. Many thanks Sensei Dunn!
Well done Brad. Eloquent, sincere and your usual kind heart shines through!
A wonderful piece from an incredible martial artist. Alex is a wondeful asset to the combative industry in Canada.
Thank you for posting this gem ... An incredible competitive fighter, IMO, Alex Atkinson exemplifies the true meaning of being a gentleman. A truly modest personality, a remarkably indomitable spirit and an inspirational instructor ... I am grateful to call him a friend!
Sensei Dunn - Enjoyed your interview. I recall your teaching at our Mississauga Dojo (Tekki Shodan) and being impressed by your clean technique. I look forward to COVID passing and exchanging some bunkai! Thank you for sharing.
Highly recommend this traditional Karate Dojo Sensei Jones is the real deal, and his instructors are very good at what they do!
Great interview. Sensei Jones is an incredible Sensei and a good man!! I also highly recommend his book.
My Relative. Thank you Kim for inspiring me to keep at the Martial Arts. My Grandad used to show me pics of you when I was a Kid. This just inspired me more and more to keep at it. Thank you

Awesome! So cool to hear about the Canadian "old school." I've heard so many great things about Sensei Fagan, and it's clear why. Loved hearing about his process of discovery--no baby bird feeding. Thanks for making this talk happen!
Been a good 15 years since I've had an opportunity to train with Sensei Fagan, but what a remarkable man! Great little interview/chat. Thanks so much.
That was a wonderful interview. I enjoyed it immensely and loved the history.
I really enjoyed listening to this interview [thanks for the honourable mention] and thank Sam Moledzki for sending the link and recommending it.
Patrick - Enjoying your interview. Takes me back to a night in Sorel, Quebec (around 1965) being backstage with you and Sensei Dalgliesh at a tournament. Watched you demonstrate and saw the real deal. Have also attended your seminars and always leave with something new! Take care and hope to see you in our travels. Earl Robertson
Nice to see some Jujitsu people ;) Hanshi Therien is fantastic. I have taken many seminars with him and taught at his Capital Conquest event. He loves are Martial Arts and wants nothing more then to see the arts flourish no matter what style.
Yes, just because this initiative is called "Karate Canucks" it doesn't mean it is exclusively about Karate...the emphasis is on the "Canucks". Many other arts will be represented as more conversations are completed and posted.
Looking forward to them. :)
Excellent, I attended a seminar with Mr. McCarthy in New Brunswick and it was great. Many of the techniques that he taught that day are found in other arts including many of the Filipino systems and his history of Martial Arts in outstanding. I typically attending seminars now to see how the instructor presents his material and pick up better way to teach and found his approach great for all levels.
Fantastic interview. I have been around the M.A seen in Nova Scotia and pride myself on being a historian for MA in Nova Scotia ( I started in 1975 ) and have heard his name for a long time. I have crossed paths with many of his students over the years but never had the honer of meeting him ( missed a chance a few years ago). Excellent attitude and I see his position on many things. I trained Karate with a few different instructors over the years but it is not my style I train and teach different arts however I enjoy is outlook on Martial Arts. Fantastic work on your videos and thank you for doing them. Respect to both of you.
Another very informative and insightful interview with Sensei Wayne Donivan. Thoroughly enjoyed it and congratulate you Charles on a job well done! Keep up the great work my friend.
Trained with Sensei Donivan many years ago. A dedicated and top-tier martial artist. I still use a phrase he once said to me when I saw he had stopped competing. "yes, Earl, I'm no longer in competitive shape....but I'm always in fighting shape".Great to see he has continued teaching and leading. Earl Robertson
John - Super interview. Thank you for sharing and continuing to inspire. Earl Robertson
Hanshi Therien is the real deal! Thanks for interviewing him, I learned so matching watching this interview.
Such a cool exercise session
Thank you Filippo. Appreciated your positive vibe. Best of good Fortune.
I was fortunate enough to have trained with Peter whe I lived in Barrie . He has the true spirit of karate at his club. He is not a McDojo. He only cares about character. Not profit. I will try to visit again.
Peter is one of Canada's most dedicated teachers and practitioners. Great to have the additional insights into his development.
Hello Charles san, really loved the interview with Kyoshi Earl Robertson. Quite inspiring with his ability to convey the essence of his Martial arts training with the audience!
Sam - Very gracious from one of Canada's top teachers! Thank you.
