Dear Sensei Okada,
On behalf of the Georgian Kendo National Federation, the entire Georgian Kendo community, and personally as your first student in Georgia, I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations on your successful promotion to 6th Dan in Kendo.
This is a truly remarkable and honorable achievement, reflecting your many years of dedicated practice, profound knowledge, strong spirit, and unwavering commitment to the true values of Kendo.
For us in Georgia, you are much more than a teacher. You are the person who laid the foundation for Kendo in our country and inspired generations of practitioners through your technical excellence, discipline, and personal example.
Your guidance has played a decisive role in the development of Kendo in Georgia, and we are deeply grateful for everything you have done for our federation and for each of us personally.
We are proud to have you as our Sensei and sincerely rejoice in this important milestone in your Kendo journey.
We wish you strong health, continued success, and many more achievements in the future.
With deepest respect and gratitude,
Giorgi Lekashvili
President
Georgian Kendo National Federation and Tbilisi Kendo Club-Samurai
