I have many projects in the works at present. The next seminar in Christchurch will be a second wave of technical aspects I've not taught openly before. `Step-by-step' I am uncovering the karate I have been taught and the critical elements required to execute it. As those who have attended my seminars and lessons know, this karate is not sports karate!
Dedicated to the memory of Tetsuhiko Asai Sensei (10th Dan) the nucleus of this site is my personal focus on the Shotokan of the old JKA (Japan Karate Association) and the highly effective developments engineered by Asai Sensei. Following Sensei's example, this online resource will also include some of the innovations I've worked on as a Japan trained and internationally qualified instructor and examiner. Welcome, relax and please enjoy!

New Karate Video on Youtube
Many of the drills I've taught in past seminars (here in New Zealand, Japan, Italy, USA, Germany & Australia) serve as the introduction. Now it is time to go to the next level. As Asai Sensei always said, "Step-by-step".
