Kancho Nobuaki Kanazawa 6th dan Watford - May 2013

Kancho began the weekend training with a SKKIF Yudansha at the Kodokai dojo with intense basic training.

We studied katas Bassai-dai and Bassai-sho followed by Enpi and Bunkai.

Testing the strength of the students....

A great honour to have newly elected Kancho Nobuaki Kanazawa visit the Kodokai dojo in Watford.......
