All IOGKF Canadian members who are 5th dan and above are invited this historical event. Please contact Nakamura Sensei if you are interested in.
The 2027 IOGKF World Chief Instructors Gasshuku will take place in a very special location. IOGKF has been able to secure the famous Kyoto Prefectural Butokuden. In 1933 and 1935 Miyagi Chojun Sensei (founder of Goju-ryu Karate) performed demonstrations at this unique location. In 1935 Chojun Sensei was assisted by Jitsuei Yogi Sensei. Yogi Sensei recalled that Chojun Sensei performed Sesan Kata and then Yakusoku Kumite. Yogi Sensei said "as Chojun Sensei's partner, I was really afraid. He would perform with great seriousness and because of this, sometimes he would make contact with his techniques".
It will be extremely special for IOGKF country heads and seniors to return this location some 90 + years after Miyagi Chojun Sensei performed so incredibly in the same place.
More information will be coming soon...
