Once again we very extremely fortunate to be taught by Sakuyama sensei of Ibaraki Takahagi Doin, Japan. Sakuyama sensei is a direct student of Kaiso Doshin So (the Founder of Shorinji Kempo) and has traveled widely around the world promoting the art. One notable contribution was his role in the Jet Li movie "Shaolin Temple" which featured high ranking Japanese and Chinese martial artists.

Up bright and early for morning exercise |
Sakuyama sensei has a rare ability to teach in a manner that engages both senior and new kenshi together - everyone can learn and benefit regardless of experience.
We wish to thank Dolce sensei (Ann Arbor), Ziring sensei (World Bank) and the rest of the team that made this event so successful.
