For many years Sensei George Andrews has held a gasshuku in Koh Samui, Thailand. These events attract students from around the world, for training in paradise. In 2014 Sensei Louise took her sandan grading test at this gasshuku. At this event we met for the first time Sensei Radhika from Singapore, who we met up with a few years later while on holiday in Singapore. We also had the pleasure of meeting Sensei Gavin Hill from Australia. This week we had the honour of hosting Sensei Gavin, 6th dan, at our house for few days following his recent attendance at the IOGKF European gasshuku in Portugal. On Tuesday we welcomed him to teach at our dojo. Many thanks to Holly for organising this, who was sadly unable to train as she was unwell. On Thursday 11th, as his time in the UK draws to an end, Sensei Martin drove Sensei Gavin down to Basildon to teach at Sensei Dave Amber's club. We look forward to training and sharing a few beers again at future gasshuku, hopefully Okinawa in 2023.
