MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND GASSHUKU
This will be an incredible year with Inagaki Shihan from the Iwama Dojo in Japan. He is one of Saito Morihiro Sensei’s most senior students and came with Sensei in 1974 when Saito Sensei came to America for the first time. His techniques are clean, precise and dynamic. He is a great teacher. I encourage everyone to come for his special visit.
