Brussels Gasshuku 2016

A weekend of training in Brussels has become a permanent fixture of our karate year.  Following the success of last year's gasshuku we were privileged to train again under both Masuyama Sensei, 8th Dan and Kuramoto Sensei, 7th Dan.  Over the course of over 12 hours we had the time to refine our basic techniques and in doing so, develop our kata.  We trained briefly with both instructors in Okinawa at the Budosai, but the relatively short sessions are only a taster of what these instructors can offer.  A group of seven karate-ka from Cambridge attended this year, accompanied by Sensei Dave Amber.

Many thanks once again to Masuyama Sensei, Kuramoto Sensei and our hosts from Belgium, Sensei Marc, Els and Sensei Patrick Curinckx.
