AI stuff can be fun...
Here is the dojo kun in the style of Middle Earth:

Attend the dojo with a humble heart,
And seek to learn from those who are wiser.
Respect your elders,
And those who have come before you.
Be patient and persistent in your training,
And never give up on your dreams.

The dojo is a place of learning,
Of growth, and of self-discovery.
It is a place where you can find your true potential,
And where you can become the best version of yourself.

So come to the dojo with an open mind,
And with a willingness to learn.
And let the dojo kun guide you on your journey to enlightenment.

Fortunate to be among such dedicated and accomplished karateka.

This is an historic moment for Oyatkata Kobujitsu. The very first Dan ranks have been earned and presented.
There are specific requirements for each Dan rank. Each certificate front side lists the three (3) new proficiencies for the rank. On the backside of the certificate all the proficiencies that have been used to achieve the prior rank are listed.

Proficiencies Categories - Kata, Bunkai, and Oyo

Kata - must perform the weapons kata and demonstrate knowledge of the movements in the kata
Bunkai - must demonstrate knowledge of techniques derived from the kata
Oyo - must demonstrate at full speed and power the use of techniques

Congratulations to Glenn, Manny, Adam, and Joe! Hard earned and well deserved.

My feature article in the upcoming edition! This was one took quite a while to research and I made a breakthrough with the help of Jimmy Teller and his mother.

Next article for Bugeisha magazine is in the can!
Over a year and a half of research for this one. I think it turned out great. Persistence paid off and I had a major breakthrough.
Thanks to the help of some great people.

What's the subject?

Chizikunbo

I think this is scheduled for September.
