Sensei Giffen, the Canadian chief instructor for our style, hosted a clinic for senior members of Ryusei and other related styles that derive their teachings from O’Sensei in Toronto last weekend.

It was a resounding success, with people from all over Ontario attending. The theme of the clinic was how we can learn and improve by incorporating ideas and techniques from each other, as well as from other martial art practitioners. To that end there was a couple of hours introduction by a tai chi instructor, as well as instruction by a number senior senseis from all over.

It was great to see old friends again, have a good chat, and deepen our knowledge of our passion.
