This was the largest group this year with most of the participants were children. Thank you to Gus, Nino, Pablo and Norris for helping, preparing and the Kitchen duties.
The students and black belts experienced the “Back to Basics” training, the theme for Gasshuku 2009, with great pride and much respect to hard Karate training. All the participants came away with a stronger mind and body after Sunday’s last session. They endured a very hot and relentless 95 degree weather, running every session from the camp to the “beach” and back. 2 hrs Friday evening, Saturday 2 hrs. morning, 2 hrs. noon and 2 hrs afternoon, and finally 3 hrs on Sunday. An examination followed the last session-but from 8 students, only 4 emerged from the group with honors. Endeavor – If you don’t succeed, try, try, try again, and keep practicing diligently. This was the hardest training since the start of FSKA-Colorado Gasshuku in 1998. Next year will be another stepping stone in achieving yet another goal in life. The Journey begins here!
