To our great Ueshiro Shorin-Ryu Karate USA Family,
Domo Arigato Gozaimasu for a tremendous weekend!
I was re-energized by Hanshi's great leadership, Kyoshi Baker's knowledge, Kyoshi Seeger's persona, Sensei Mackay's meticulous kata, working the Tuifa Kata with Sensei Barnes, repeating Kata Gojushiho with Sensei Kaplan, basking on the deck of Sensei Gobillot and Sensei Moriarty's most genuine dojo, Sensei Garcia's magnanimity, and the spirited camaraderie and training with all the other Sensei and deshi. Congratulations again to those who tested.
I also had the pleasure of visiting the NYC Midtown Dojo at St. Bart's on Tuesday morning. I enjoyed very much Sensei Lott's early morning workout, interweaving kata training and our traditional exercises with great detail.
Please come visit and train with us in Florida any time. We will try to match your fantastic hospitality and camaraderie. I have a guest room waiting for you.
Best Regards, Sensei Tamir.
Onegai-shimasu, Hanshi, Kyoshi(s),Sensei(s) and deshi
