Because of the labor
dispute of the city of Vancouver, we were unable to book the
Killarney gym for our Fall belt testing. Thus, we held it at two
different locations on Nov 10th and Dec 6th respectively. Over sixty
students in total did their best in performing required techniques
and passed the grading. One of the highlights was that Sasaki-san at
age of 47 of the Richmond East Dojo demonstrated his strong spirit
before other applicants by challenging his limits very hard in
push-ups. Big applause was given to him when he finally collapsed
after reaching grueling sixtieth push-up, the highest record of the
day. Sasaki-san did not only prove his muscular strength but an
ideal that age doesn't matter when there was a will.
All the scheduled
special events of 2007 including this testing were safely and
successfully conducted thanks to the support we received from
students and parents. I look forward to training with all of you in
the new year. Happy holidays and have a great new year! Osu.
Sorry, we only have
