August 1st, 2009 Konnichiwa, SEUSKF 2009 Championships and Shinsa are only 3 months away. This year this prestigious event will be held in Virginia on October 24th & 25th. I hope we can get many to go so we are able to have a strong showing both for Taikai and Shinsa. Team competition would be a lot of fun with one or two GCK Teams. Many are ready for testing of their next rank and several are ready to test for the first time. I expect everyone to train hard and do their best to prepare. I was once told by an old sensei that kendo is easy...The difficult part is getting to the dojo ! Hope to see everyone soon. Regards, Bob Souder
