I had the opportunity to attend yesterday’s doshi kai. It was a very positive experience. Hanshi opened up with some history and background knowledge at the beginning of the doshi kai which help set up a strong lead for our afternoon of training. Hanshi's sharing of ideas was beneficial and functional as it set purpose for our afternoon. Sensei Jerry started with a flow drill which allowed participants to use the principles of martial arts while incorporating other styles. Sensei Nestor followed with a punching drill which can be incorporated into daily training. Last, was Sensei Reggie who shared his knowledge of the jo. I’m glad I had the opportunity to attend and share in yesterday’s events and am looking forward to the next one. I would also like to again congratulate Sensei Nestor on his promotion; it’s well-deserved.
