Okinawa!

Greeting friends and colleagues, I know some of you expected to see me in Okinawa during last weekend’s Karate events. Ryukyu Bugei ç‰çƒæ­¦èŠ¸. I have been very busy at the International Traditional Karate Association-ITKA Karate.

Due to a wedding of a loved one and other high level commitments in Europe, I was unable to be there.

As many of you know, I travel to Okinawa frequently; I love this beautiful Island for so many reasons.

I trust everyone had a great time. For those who traveled there for the first time, I am sure you were amazed when you stepped into Okinawa Karate Kaikan.  Please access this link http://karatekaikan.jp/en/about/ to see the state of the art and magnificent facility.  I also hope you had the opportunity to meet with some of the greatest Masters and enjoyed a wonderful learning experience.
