My heart is filled with love, pride, and respect after the visit of my brother and student Jose Manuel Senpai from my previous karate school at ISKF Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. It was a great positive and life experience for my students at Shotokan Karate-do Taka Ryu Dojo. I will always be available to help him accomplish his dream to open his own Karate-Do classes.

Kids are the future of Shotokan Karate-Do but also give the the opportunity today to teach what they have learned. Because when you teach, you also learn how to perfect the technique and develop your character.
