Asai Sensei would have been 89 years old today

 Today Asai Tetsuhiko Sensei would have been 89 years old. After teaching, and before self-training, I reflected during a walk around the remains of Funai Castle, here in central Oita City.


My thoughts are with the Asai family today, and all others who continue to practice Asai Sensei's Karate here in Japan, and around the world. I'll conclude this post with some photos I took as I walked around Funai-Jo.


Life is short and unpredictable. Accordingly, we need to make the most of our ultra small time here. Following our dreams is scary, but then we can have no regrets. Clearly, Asai Sensei did that with his life.


      押忍!!!
