Thank you to all of the participants of our ISKF/US National Championships, November 21 - 23. We are so very proud of all of our members: competitors, officials and volunteers who helped make this event a success. The members of our dojo who competed did an awesome job. Your hard work paid off and we hope that this special training has enhanced your study of Shotokan Karate.

To those who officiated, as your know it takes a lot of training to learn to judge in our organization. Judges go through a special training as well and it is important to keep the focus and tradition so that our organization remains at its highest caliber.

To the volunteers who worked from the planning of this event, whether you worked at the venue or helped load the truck, we appreciate you.

And to the parents and guardians of our youth - wow! We are so proud of each and every child for their very good display of karate technique, their etiquette and their positive attitudes. Thank you for your dedication to the ISKF Headquarters dojo.

Last but certainly not least - thank you to our Chief Instructor Hiroyoshi Okazaki Shihan for providing us with traditional Shotokan karate while also moving us into the future.

Next ISKF Headquarters event - Nokai Kohaku Shiai, end of the year training, December 29. Details will be posted soon.
