We attended another seminar in Maywood N.J. this weekend, hosted by Dave and Mike Senak, I would like to give a big thanks to Lisa,Vinnie,Ann Marie,Mason, and Ken, and all the others that made us feel very welcome in this organization. This is the second seminar in as many weeks that the top instructors at O.K.I have traveled to see Sensei Iha. He is such a pleasure to train with. He is very soft spoken and cares about every one on the floor. This Master is from Okinawa, a Tenth Dan by the way and it is very common to see him kneeling on the floor actually correcting a childs stance. He has a very good sense of humor and makes everyone feel welcome. He actually went over most of the katas for our benefit and showed us the proper changes and some bunkai. Sensei Iha is in his seventies now and you would not believe that if you saw the way he moves. I am honored just to train in the same room with this man. Hopefully this year or early next year we will be able to bring him to our Dojo.
