RI Uechi Karate School

Chris, who runs our affiliated dojo in Alaska was in town for the holidays and we had some great workouts.

“Never underestimate an old man who knows karate… his joints may creak, but his backfist doesn’t.”

We miss you Everett.

Congratulations to Chris who visited us from our affiliate in Alaska. Very good performance and promotion to Nidan.

Pawtucket Uechi Karate School: Bob and I would like to congratulate the following students for their continued study and black belt promotions.
Brian First Don Victor Fourth Don Wally Sixth Don Neil Seventh Don Ken Seventh Don
Also, Alec Third Don Gabe Fourth Don who were unable to attend class last week. I’ll get their photos soon.

Great to see our friend Jerry McDonald again on Wednesday.

We lost another great one, Everett Crisman, 1937- 2024.

One more great loss for Uechi-Ryu community. With great sadness we received the news of Kosuke Yonamine Sensei's passing. A true master of both Karate-Do and Kobudo is no longer with us. Our thoughts are with his family and students.

Anyone recognized the third man from the right?
