Very well spoken gentleman and 71 years old! Explains Karate that non participating people can understand and made it interesting. Never realized that there were so many different types.
I still see my wife and I's signature on the King's staircase from 2017. Grand Master Wrenn is a good friend and a great person to interview for the E story. Great job Spa Guy!
What a coincidence!!! I was watching a video, where the main focus was show the great skill of ELVIS with Karate. Whenevet he sang " If you talk in your sleep"..It was a sight to see practicing karate movies on stage, wondetfully well. Noé, watching your vídeo, Billy, i imagine how incredible this place is, that on several occasions, ELVIS has been practicing one of his passions. Your vídeos are great.😊😊😊 You show us things and places that made the happiness of our beloved ELVIS. Very good!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Whenever/ now. Correction.
He explained it all really spot on.. Great Job!!
Patrick seems like a cool dude! Thanks Spa Guy!

Mr. Spa Guy. Very nice , very good and informative video. Awesome in fact! Thank You so much for helping keep Elvis' life alive. This is a part of his life that is definitely mostly overlooked by documentarians. You are the best! I am trying to tighen up, but at almost 62, its getting harder! LOL! Thank You once again.

Thank's Spa guy I loved the show as always.//Bien Good over and out. ladies and Gentleman, Bien has left the page...////.
Love this. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot a put Elvis a d Karate out there. Cant wait to see the rest!
Spa Guy your journey in the steps of Elvis are a must for any real Elvis fan because of your encyclopedic knowledge, good humour and infectious enthusiasm. These are important documents in chronicling what remains of the world Elvis came from.Thanks for the service you provide for those of us who have yet to make it to Memphis. Tighten up!
Thank You for the Encouraging words!!
Great video!!! Here is a man Elvis sought out to spend time with because he found him fascinating. Not hard to see why, is it? Fantastic addition to documented Elvis history.
Love it! Love it, LOVE IT!!!
This is so AWESOME!!!
I can TOTALLY relate to always starting something without ever finishing it which is why I'm beginning to learn why I'm never learning anything! :)
Your outdoing yourself with this one my friend!
Absolutely LOVE this my friend!!!
Spiritually enlightening for sure!
Best regards!!!
I always love it when Elvis uses his karate moves and stances in his movies and in his shows. He sure had the body for it and his moves were always absolutely beautiful, graceful, and incredibly strong. He was amazing.
Cool ! Elvis and karate, yeah. Karate was Elvis' passion. To get black belts you have to be at the top of your game. Love the interesting interview with Mr. Patrick Wrenn. Looks as though he could still kick some butt ! Looking forward to parts two and three. You and Ms Lorie love on your new granddaughter. Lord bless you and your family. Tighten up.
Absolute blockbuster of a trilogy, billy you have massively tightened up utterly fascinating subject and some iconic shots of the karate school.Bring on episodes 2 and 3 this is why this channel is THE best elvis channel on TH-cam Barr none
Spa Guy that was very interesting, can't wait for 2 & 3. Thanks for the video
Just when we get into it, we have to wait for the next part! Absolutely amazing how much information Mr. Wrenn is giving! So interesting and informative for those of us that don't know much about Martial Arts. Fantastic vlog, Billy! Please don't make us wait too long for part 2, ok? I'm really getting into this! Thank you so much! :-)
Wow, this is fascinating and really informative! Can’t believe Elvis was right there on that staircase and in front of that wall with the symbol. Learning about karate gives us even more of an idea of who Elvis was as a person. I love what Mr. Wrenn says about the mind-body-spirit balance. 🙏🏻
Holy Toledo what an education I just got. I can't wait till the next one. This guy is awesome 💜
I never knew there was so much to know about Karate , i can understand why teachers didnt allow full contact with Elvis,
This video was very informative....Spaguy , thank you for the video and cant wait to see 2 and 3 ....
Have a great week , hope the new grandaughter is good , bet Lori is in her glory .... I know i was when i had my 1st grandbaby
God Bless
Well another cool video, can’t wait to see parts 2 & 3 well done Spa Guy
Great video as usual, Billy!
I have the Gladiators DVD!!
Another good one Spa Guy!!
Looking forward to the other videos!!
Another phenomenal video, taking us back to the memories by way of the present. You are SO good at what you do!!! Thank you so much!!!!!
Great video Billy, looking forward to parts 2 & 3 ~ Congrats on your granddaughter
Love it and all the hard work you do , thanks 🤗😃
This young man is one fit young guy, I thought Billy you would of let him throw you around the mat for a while, this is a fantastic video again, I wouldn't like to come across this fella in the dark, i am looking forward to parts 2 and 3, thanks again for all you're hardwork in putting this together, just had to edit I put parts 1 and 2 instead of 2 and 3 anyway just altered it now, sorry Billy, its not like me to do something like that.
Super cool stuff! Wow! This is inside stuff about Elvis and his love of martial arts! Awesome, awesome awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for doing this interview and sharing it. It was very interesting to hear about all the different types of karate. I would have loved to see Elvis perform all the moves that he learned.. I look forward to watching parts 2 and 3 of this story. Have a blessed day. The sun is shining today but the wind is blowing hard here in kinston, North Carolina.
I have survived Hurricanes in Kinston.. Thanks for watching Donna!!
Wow what a cool man he definitely knows what he is good at l love this video very honest man can't wait to see the other videos thanks for sharing xx
As a member of american dragon karate 🥋 great respect to all black belts
Do a bit of karate myself so this is great to see. You can imagine Elvis walking up them stairs even now and turning the corner at the top. Has seen in This is Elvis. Looking forward to the next one great interview too. Elvis is always TCB
Correct. I first saw this place in 1981 This is Elvis. Finally saw more footage with Gladiators DVD. Always thought it interesting they used a non-Elvis song in This is Elvis - Kung Fu Fighting. Also interesting is Kung Fu Fighting song was released same year as the video footage in 1974. Another great interview, like your interview of Wayne Carman, another Gladiator with late great Red West.
Great video again, when you were standing on those stairs was trying hard to imagine elvis walking up those stairs and seeing what we was seeing many years ago
I wouldn’t want to mess with Patrick. No sir !!!!
Fascinating..!
thank you again my friend spa guy for all hard work u put in to this for ever one to see and get to know about .best wist to you may god bless you t.c.b
Very cool indeed!! Patrick to me seems like a perfect gentleman, unless you force him not to be! Then you may not want to be present, as I feel even at his age he can definitely take care of business! No pun intended! Well maybe a little.
Can’t wait for for parts 2 & 3.
Always leave them wanting more.... job complete!!
Great work Billy!!
Hi Billy 😊..very interesting.. thanks for sharing.. looking forward to seeing the rest of series!.. your friend Bonnie
Very Interesting. I’m looking forward to part 2 Congratulations on your new grandbaby. Girl. 👏🏼❤️
wow a great part 1. very informative. enjoyed it. thank you.
It humbles my heart to see alot goes behind the true meaning of the Karate aspects. Looking forward to see other videos. Thanks for sharing this part 1.
Great video! Looking forward to part 2 and 3! I would love to visit this place. Lots of history. I actually hold Black belt Ranks under Mr. Wallace and Mr. Lewis both. Good to hear him talk about both of these amazing Martial artists.
Such a great piece of Elvis history.Thanks for sharing with Elvis fans worldwide Patrick & Spa Guy.
You always try to get to the meat of the matter. Elvis brings it out of us. Good job as ever
Awesome video Billy !!
Great video.A long time ago I made a clip about Elvis and karate, using the 1974 live dialogue by Elvis.
Good show.! With all you do it’s hard to believe you find time for karate lessons. You all tighten up!
Chester. I wonder how Mr. Spa Guy finds time to make a living! LOL.
Elvis was always a tough guy even before he started taking karate Elvis could really handle himself he had a few brawls in in the 50 and he won Elvis was always good with his fists and never scared to fight when he started taking karate he became very good at it yes he could handle himself very well I personally think after 73 he wasn't in the best shape so he slacked off a little Elvis was tough and he demonstrated karate in some of hi movies roustabout it happened at the World's Fair Kid Galahad in Kid Galahad he did the boxing scenes very well very convincing and the fight scenes in flaming star the Western he was unbelievable in the fight scenes and I really believed I really believe is natural ability to fight and his training in karate made fight scenes in movies convincing Elvis should have played Billy Jack and should have started in movies we could have played a detective with karate skills Elvis was definitely good at handling himself when it came to a fight thank you
This is so good
Learned so much
I always wanted take K. But never had a chance
I read on it and watch all I can
Thank you Spa Guy
24:19 - love this philosophy.
King of Rock and ROCK Elvis and KING OF Martial Arts and Kung Fu Master Bruce Lee
I am pleased to have watched this 3 parter. Absolutely fantastic. Thank you.
Great job, looking forward to the rest.............
great vlog , im a student through Don Warrener, one of his top guys was my teacher , don now is owner of rights to elvis's martial art footage and books ect , i think there is still stuff to be released , but not 100% i would have to check too see what has become of it since he got the rights
Years of karate not 2 years 40 years later still practice 4xa week meditation good nutrition
Very cool indeed!! Patrick know what he talk about that for sure.!
These videos go beyond great. They are real with so much information that you would never hear about. My thanks again to you and your family. BTB E G.
Hope there more to this video. And pictures related
Talk about interesting, great video !
Billy, that S/F crest is US Army, the writing “De Opresso Liber” translated means “To Liberate The Opressed” it’s very well known in the special ops community, been around since the Green Berets inception in the early 60’....see there, I tightened up and helped my boy out👍😉
Very Cool Stuff!!
RESPECT...for Elvis and the karate club...mawachi gerry..am aa karate woman.......3 de dan now i do wuchu 6 years
Great interview.
“Everybody was Kung fu fighting”. RIP ELVIS ♥️
I hope while I'm there he has time for us. Staying 2 full days in Memphis. Maybe 3 If I can. Leave day 3 or 4 for Tupulo then back home. Im for sure going to call! It's a must see for me!
@Ed Gein lol it's ok I'm from the ghetto I live in Shreveport where Elvis spent alot of time at here on the La hayride and before he died. Unfortunately we cant help where we live so I wont be too intimidated.
@Ed Gein Doesnt work like that we are saving to buy not rent again. We run a business that contains mostly in the city. I'm not in the worst part of my city but did grow up there. Im actually in the safest neigorhood left here. When my family gets ready to move with our animals we will need to & buy a home. We cant rent again with our situation and our payments now and home are just right for our situation to save to move. It's hard to explain to people but we just cant yet
@Ed Gein Yeah I have no idea what that is or means. Sorry but I don't
@Ed Gein So you dont care to explain after you say something like that?!
When I tell you I dont understand what you mean? I mean just like you dont understand my family & situation or know me. I dont understand what you mean. Or understand why you would even come at me like you did on my comment to Billy!
You coming at me about what I need to do or where to live. What I need do with our money we make with our new tree busines. That we just started & have customers in the city who know us well. Also an amazing landlord who helps us in times of need & understanding to having 3 kids & animals.
That works out amazing for us while we save to buy land & a home. We don't want to rent again but next time we move buy land & a home we need. So I can build my own animal rescue & have land for it our tree business equipment & vehicles.
I have no idea why when I tell you the ghetto doesnt scare me because I was born & raised in it. That it will be ok in Memphis on our vacation. That we deserve to go on & will be going on especially to finally go pay my respect to E. That you automatically took offense to my situation & response that wasn't offensive.
Then came at me the way you did about me & my family? Then say it sounds like what you said. Yet havent wanted to explain yourself? Yet I just told you my business. Since you felt the need to tell me what to do with it, my family & know my business! Why is that?
This was great
i going to call for appointment to see the school that Elvis when
Wow,l really enjoyed this video!
Karate show Elvis Presley speciale legac you karate e Judo sport interesting ♥️ mis you63)
I just realized from reading some of the other comments that you have a grandaughter. I did not know this was happening. Is this your first grandchild? You will definitely enjoy her very much.
Yes it is our first and we are very excited.. Going to see her for Easter this weekend..
Spa did Elvis ever meet Bruce lee it would be nice if they did is like two kings meet
This interview is awesome so far! I like interviews that arent just sitting, but showing you around! Mr. Wrenn is also really cool and he reminds me so much of Johnny Lawrence from Cobra Kai. I also studied a bit of taekwondo just like Elvis!
Elvis history t/c/b it spa guy!!!
Great video. Can't wait for pt 2 and 3. Did the Gladiator movie ever get released?
You can find in in whole or in parts on youtube..
Just think Elvis A- Hole management had been supportive of projects he wanted to do( touring other countries, starring in and producing quality movies, among other things he wanted to do) he probably wouldn't have grown bored and over medicated, might have been with us longer....
What a wonderful inspiration you are. Thanks!
SG can find out is it still a school, is it open to the public, how long did red stay with the school
It is still a school and the information on how to contact is in the description of this video.. How long Red was there I don't know that would be another story for the future..
@@SpaGuy thanks SG, would be great if you can do that story, also how long bill Wallace was there,
✨🌿🔥It’s -Captivateing !!! 🇺🇸😎🥊
So many memory love king for ever
Bill Wallace played a bad guy in one of the Chuck Norris films. Good dude
thanks billy for diong this great video friend from england
Spa did Elvis knew about Bruce Lee
Terrific..
The best Bruce LEE kick was too fast they told Bruce to go slow
Elvis meet Muhammad Ali Elvis had his Karate uniform and Ali had his Robe that Elvis gave to him
Awesome video!!
ELVIS SHOULD get Bruce Lee for his school
TOO BAD DIDN'T get a match with Bruce Lee it would been over few seconds
DUE to respect i think Bruce Lee had fasting kicks and arm in the world he have one inch punch and one arm fingers push up i wish Elvis meet Bruce Lee
Great video...I studied pu kang tang so do and earned a brown belt...great way to tighten up...how do you find time to work sir????
I thought red started tki ??? Have a great day...God bless you sir....curt
It was Red, Elvis and Bill Wallace together..
Great job as always
I saw a picture with Elvis and Bruce Lee together but i found out somebody make fake picture by cutting someone else with Elvis and replace it with Bruce Lee pic thats the true
Very informative video.
SG, didn't this place become a electric shop, ??
Took taekwondo from Khang Rhee from 1979 to 1982. Studio on Poplar across from Overton Park
thats in the 1969or 1968
Karate is great art. But you still can not compare it to it’s original source and where it came from and that is the Mastership of Kung Fu the Apex of Martial Arts.
