MICHI
NAGASE
● Official Instructor
● Richmond East Dojo
● Black Belt (Shodan)
● Commercial Air Pilot Michi is
one of the most active fighters in North America. Working for a
commercial airline as a pilot, Michi strives to find time for
training to stay competitive in international tournaments. In
2007, the relentless efforts he made at the dojo fulfilled his
earnest wish: Competing in the World Tournament. The eye-popping
experience he had in Tokyo brought him tremendous confidence and
made him train harder so he could evenly match up with those
world-class fighters. And the goal became reality when he placed
7th at the All American Open in New York City in 2010. In 2011,
Michi represented Canada second time at the 10th World Tournament
and fought the last match of his 10-year-long fight career. Today,
the spirited Japanese attends the dojo's regular classes as
an assistant instructor and runs the VKK fighter class as a main
instructor, sharing his knowledge with young fighters.
