This past weekend we visited New York 🗽
We attended a seminar at Shidogakuin NY Shidokan and were fortunate to be able to practice with 3 Hachidan: Kakehashi Sensei, Ishii Sensei, and Kato Sensei.
We also participated in the Greater Northeastern Taikai as Team California Budogu. Kerstein Sensei served as a Shinpan and had the honor of judging several finals matches with Ishii Sensei.
