The Autumn/Fall weather has finally reached Oita

 Finally, the Autumn/Fall weather has reached Oita City. While warm-ups may take a little longer, trainings will certainly be a bit more pleasant and easier to endure without the high humidity here in Kyushu. Irrespective of what we prefer, we must always see the positive.

Recently I've 'amped up my training'. New specified goals set for the remainder of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023.

 

Greetings and best wishes from Japan. OSU, Andre Bertel.

Enjoying a post admin stroll today near Oita University before heading to the dojo for training.

Recently as you all know, I finally taught a seminar outside of Japan, in Bavaria, Germany. Today I'd like to offer special thanks to Oliver Schomburg (3rd Dan) whom kindly filmed the event (both photos and all the videos below). In sum, 100% of the footage in these three videos (and the photos) are thanks to him. 

Arigato Gozaimasu Olli, OSU!!!

André
