Onegai-shimasu Hanshi, Kyoshi, Sensei, and fellow Deshi,
We are moving forward. We continue to train at the Wang YMCA of Chinatown, 8 Oak Street West, Boston MA. Classes are on Monday and Wednesday nights at 7:30 pm and Sundays at 12:30 pm. The YMCA is near downtown Boston. We are honored when visitors train with us, as Mr. Parsons from the Northampton Dojo recently did. If you may be able to do so, please let me know.
In January and February, we were honored to participate in the black belt and kyu rank tests at the Northampton dojo. From our club, Keith Burrows was promoted to Shodan in January. In February, Sean Jones, On Nai Lai, Yuk Wah Cheung, and Sueann Cheung were promoted to Sankyu and Diane Miller was promoted to Go-kyu.
Domo arigato gozaimasu to Hanshi for leading us down the Path that Grandmaster Ueshiro laid out for us.
Domo arigato gozaimasu to Kyoshi Mackay for leading the black belt test and board of judges.
Domo arigato gozaimasu to Denshi/Shihan/Sensei Dan Gobillot for overseeing both tests, and as always, inviting Boston’s deshi to join them.
Domo arigato gozaimasu to Sensei Powell for his strength and spirit on the deck and his role on the board of judges at the black belt test.
Domo arigato gozaimasu to Sensei Ruvolo and Mr. and Mrs. Parsons for their role on the board of judges for the kyu rank test.
Domo arigato gozimasu to all of the deshi of the Northampton Ueshiro Dojo for their strong spirit on the deck and their hospitality and support.
Congratulations to all those that tested and a reminder that we only earn our present rank when we obtain our next one, or in other words . . .
Keep Training.
Domo arigato gozaimasu to all, - Emiliano Mazlen, San-Dan
