Hi all, This is my first post and I just wanna say first that I appreciate being able to see a little of what's going on in the community through this group,...
Hi, I would also very much like to know where Chida sensei's dojo is. I started at honbu because he and Inoue sensei were there :( Any info would be very much...
Chida Sensei has a few dojos all over Tokyo. The one I am going to now is in Ryogoku, just past Akihabara. Any of the Kokusai staff have my keitai number. Just...
Thanks very much for the responce. I think I came across the Ryogoku one once while I was trolling the Yoshinkan site. Is that the Thursday "BG-kai" at the...
Thanks for letting us know about the new website. It looks great. Much improved over the old interface. It would be great if they had an English version of the...
Anyone have a copy of the memo from Honbu regarding the SALE of shihan certificates? Apparently after so many years of not allowing the use of the title...
Really? I have not seen or heard of anything like that. Maybe a quick note to honbu is in order. If you get it, I'd like to see it. I wonder what the criteria...
And after this weekend and all those praising remarks from Mustard Sensei (who me jealous!?!) you deserve one. Just send me $1,000 CDN made out to ONO Alan...

Two responses: 1) Not Serious: I think this is great information, I'm looking forward to buying my shihan certificate. I once filled out a form online and...
... That is a good point, except it was very public IYAF / Yoshinkan policy that no one outside of Japan use the title "Shihan". So it is not so much a matter...
I can get a PHd from a university in the Bahamas for a couple of hundred bucks. MMMMMhhhh..... now what should it be Phd..... or shihan....... Phd or ...
Wow. Just the idea of something like that with no dialogue through the IYAF is disturbing, imo. Sounds like a money grab to me. Isn't everything outside Japan...
... Much ... update ... Yeah. I'm waiting for some English stuff and IYAF updates too. Actually, some Japanese updates would be nice! I agree the site look...

Any chance of a highlighted list of the best for the Japanese challenged? Alan ________________________________________________________ Alan Shumak - Toronto...
To be honest Alan, most of it doesn't bear repeating. As Ian mentioned, that particular site is always being sued and in the news for causing trouble. In fact...
Doesn't spell out disaster. This is par for course. Has there been any formal announcements from honbu dojo about the recent round of promotions to 7th dan?...
... This weekend? Thanks for the reminder. I wonder if I can rearrange my work schedule... Charles Yeomans...

As Matthew said, ch2 stuff isn't even soap opera worthy. It's a large steaming pile of mindless chatter, rumors and nastiness with a few thoughtful comments...
Hey folks, Could someone please e-mail me the kanji for Chushin Rokyu, Shuchu Rokyu and Kokyu Rokyu, as used in Yoshinkan? I would be most thankful. You can...
Many thanks to all who sent the kanji. Good news, there all the same. :-) ... From: koyaji <koyaji@...> To: yoshinkan@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday,...
If the email were made public and implied that sending money would get you a Shihan certificate, then I would say they are "for sale". If the email only went...
