𝐖𝐓𝐊𝐎 𝐎𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨 𝐒𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐫 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔🥋🌅

An incredible weekend of training, growth and karate spirit with WTKO International Director, Scott Middleton Sensei.

From Heian Kata to Bassai Dai and Chinte, students were challenged to deepen their understanding and refine their practice.

Thank you to Traditional Karate Ontario for co-hosting, and to all who trained—Karate is an endless journey. OSS!💨

"You've done plenty of Kihon, kata, ... it is enough! So, you learned a lot of different forms. But what do you really know? You know nothing! It is important to go deep inside, to get this feeling. When do you start to practise, and where do you begin from? Which power, which energy do you use? Is it from the stomach, from the head, from the shoulders, from where? If you are only doing it with muscles, there will be no progress! I need to search inside for the sense that will trigger the change. You have to try yourself to find something inside that will "move you". That is the Way of Karate." - Master Taiji Kase, a lesson from the seminars.

FEATURES, RICHARD AMOS 8th Dan Chief Instructor WTKO
Born in England in 1963, Richard Amos began karate at age eleven. He will need no introduction to SKM readers, as he’s been featured in SKM many times over the years. I’m very pleased to say that this edition of SKM has a new interview with Richard sensei who has stuck firmly to his Traditional Karatedo roots and continues to teach this approach to his many students around the world. It’s well documented that when he was training in Japan at the JKA Honbu dojo, one of his main mentors was the famous Mikio Yahara sensei (also featured in this edition) and his training regime was an extremely austere experience. Richard sensei was one of only a few westerners to genuinely have gone through and graduated from the extremely rigorous, gruelling JKA karate Kenshusei programme in the early 1990s. This is a profound interview from a senior British Traditional Shotokan karate sensei, with an enviable pedigree. Editor.
