Who would be interested in a karate lesson in Tokyo? I can prepare somewhere in central Tokyo once a month for a face-to-face lesson if people are interested!

Seeing the last post, 55% of the 150 votes answered that December would be a great time for the second Karate Retreat in Okinawa 2025.

Which date would be ideal for you? Please answer if you're interested in coming to the program.

It's only been a week since the announcement of the Karate Retreat in Okinawa 2025, yet the spots are almost sold out. Wow, it’s truly an honor to see such strong interest from the martial arts community. I never expected my YouTube/karate/teacher life to make this into a reality, so I cannot thank you enough.

With that said, I am thinking of doing another retreat, if it seems to gather some interest. Please let me know which month you'd like to participate in.

P.S. You can still sign up for the retreat planned from October 16th to 20th from here.
