Osss! I pick up Shihan Madani tomorrow afternoon as our teaching guest for the next two days. Shihan has years of extensive experience--scroll through some of the older blogs for a link to his bio--and he is coming here to share it with us. Not all of the students have signed up. The cost is $50 and includes a t-shirt. This is a great price for such an event.
The tournament we went to in Salt Lake City a couple of weekends ago was a USANKF tournament hosted by an IMA affiliated dojo, IMA Utah, and it was exciting for us to have such solid expectations and good competition. We were very happy with the judging and with all of the people we met there.
I saw many people I trained with when I lived in Salt Lake City a few years ago. It was nice to get so many hugs. Those people are some I consider to be part of my karate family, and I am invested in building a greater karate family for our students.
Shihan is also bringing a sensei out of Colorado whom I met in Keystone and who was a judge at the IMA tournament. Sensei McGavin is a great teacher and will add a lot of depth to our seminar and tournament here this week. You can see a bit of his dojo at www.northforkkarate.com.
Stay posted for blog posts and pictures. I know I still have to post the results from Salt Lake City--I will get it up here!
