Kancho and Sensei Fumitoshi Kanazawa Seminars
(A Message From Wong Sensei)
Oss! I want to express my thanks to all of our students who participated in Kancho Kanazawa and Sensei Fumitoshi Kanazawa's seminars on Monday the 16th. I trust you all learned a great deal from these excellent instructors who travelled all the way from Japan to be with us. Special thanks to all of our out of town guests who traveled great distances to be here with us on a Monday evening. Some students learned new and exciting techniques, while some senior students learned a more detailed explanation and understanding of basic and advanced techniques. All and all it was a great seminar, learning from great instructors while being surrounded by fellow karateka training with great spirit and showing mutual respect for one another. Oss!
