the Kai

Martial Arts creates a bond that can last a lifetime. I would like to introduce my personal martial arts brothers, know as the Kai, or family. These individuals are world-class martial artists and great human beings. They have greatly impacted my martial arts career and I have the utmost respect for them. Throughout the years they have supported me, my school, and my students. They comprise the panel that adjudicates belt candidates in their testing.
