Trainee from New Zealand: Andrew Makin (Yondan)

 Andrew Makin (4th Dan JKA), originally from South Africa, came from New Zealand.

It was great to have him here as a RENSHUSEI in Oita at the dojo.

I worked with him on his Tekki Sandan, Nijushiho and Meikyo.

Also, corrections on Kihon and engagement in the various forms of kumite.

Overall, as a fellow dragon, 12 years older than me, he did very well through the trainings and clearly improved through them.

押忍 (OSU)!!
