Tatsuo Sekiguchi Sensei (Okaya City, Japan) and Rod Murray Shihan - 2008

After practicing Toyama kata Nanajushi in Seattle, Washington, USA

Brian Frost (Koei-Kan) and Rod Murray

Onishi Kancho & Takazawa O'Sensei trained together with Toyama Kanken Sensei...the tradition continues!

In 1993, Takazawa O'Sensei first honored Murray Sensei with "Kan" on his dogi for the USA. Murray Sensei is humbled by such an honor. The "Kan" is reserved for the founder and is gone with his "passing" - only the "kai" remains and all are members in training of the kai...Keishinkai. Murray Sensei is KEI SHIN KAN USA!
