Fantastic use of traditional techniques and tons of original work. Dr. Sawa's use of moves and
ideas contributed to by Marlo and Vernon, Tenkai and other greats are blended with incredible uses
of gimmicked and ungimmicked coins. Much like Tommy Wonder, Dr. Sawa often goes to extraordinary
lengths (and expense) to achieve the effect.
While his timing and flow are affected by his
focus on translating his work to English, that is no reason to shun the amazing technique and
intricate thinking he has generously shared on this DVD series.
Try to search out videos
of him performing the effects in Japanese...or be as lucky as I was to attend his lecture this
weekend...and see for yourself what a true master of the craft he is.
