Picture Update
Photos from the Fall BBQ and the Annual Demonstration have been updated.
Annual Demonstration 2002
This year's Annual Demonstration was a big success. Everyone worked very hard in the weeks before the event and surpassed all expectations when the time finally came. Thank you to everyone who came out to watch and share in the Pot Luck dinner afterwards and a special thank you to all the students who participated.Click on the left picture above the first half and the right picture for the second half of the demonstration.

Kata Night
We would like to invite any karate-ka who practice Matsubyashi-Ryu to join us for the last Thursday of every month. After a good warm-up of kihon (basics) we start kata practice and decided this month to also add Bunkai (application) and Yakusoku Kumite (pre-arranged sparring) practice to the evening. Our dojo is open to all, regardless of rank or associations. This is a non-political dojo and a fun night of training together in the true spirit of Nagamine Shoshin Sensei's Karate-Do. If you are interested in joining us please contact us for directions and times or feel free to drop in for the 8pm adult class on the last Thursday of each month.
