From training together in Asakusa, Japan in the 70s, Kazuo Saito and Takahashi Hanshi’s journeys have began convergence once again.
Yesterday, direct student of Akio Takahashi Hanshi, Mike Smith Shihan from Kenwakai Australia, ran a pragmatic, no nonsense Goju karate training session at the dojo.
I’m often humbled and hold deep respect for martial artists, who live by The Way for their whole lives.
