Uenoyama: I'd die for you but go on

Akihiko: *shuffles them*

The first American Uechi-ryu Black Belt was Mr. Terry W. Wibb. Anyone know if he is still alive and well? I would love to reach out to him. #uechiryu #uechi #uechiryukarate (at Halifax, Nova Scotia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_c1sHVJgWW/?igshid=1nzycs6mox0fn

Hey budoblr! I've been in a slump lately since my shoulders have been bothering me to the point where i couldn't even pick up chairs at work, let alone train during the last few weeks... but i'm back now so here's an awkward photo of me and the lovely Fumiko-san, who came from Okinawa with her Sensei to train with us last month. My dojo hosted an incredible 4 day mini-camp, with visitors from several uechi schools in the northeast and it was pretty intense training. My karate (and my Japanese) improved so much i am so lucky to have been a part of this experience. Now if only i could find gi pants that fit haha

I don't think a pedicure will be enough. Karate feet are a thing. #uechiryu #uechi #karate
