Well it's only the second month in 2011 and already the Hoteikan System is full of activities.
1) In January, Soke Claudio, Shihan Carrano & Shihan Morales received their awards at the "Hall of Honors" in Atlantic City.
2) The New Bushido Dojo group started training at their new location in Sioux Falls, S.D.
3) The Desert Warriors from Arizona held it's 1st workshop of the year.
4) Ms. Victoria from Arizona won the Arizona State Karate Championships in both Kata & Kumite.
 
This month as stated in our last Blog, Shihan Gary Rasenan and his L.I. Judo & Martial Arts Association has teamed up with the United Studios to conduct a Seminar & Grappling Tournament featuring 3 of our finest Hoteikan instructors, Soke Claudio, Shihan Carrano and Shihan Rasenan. It's on February 26th, so don't miss it!
 
Lastly, we are working on coordinating the West Point Seminar for this year. It is set for Saturday, April 16, 2011. It is our 8th year and is going to be great!
 
Well that's all for now!
 
Remember, practice your basics. They create the proper foundation and muscle memory needed to be all you can be!
 
Train hard & stay loose!
