Saturday, August 29, we performed the “Ne-pai” technique from the Toon-ryu Karatedo style at the joint Goya-Nakasono Kyoyukai lion dance event. 🥋

Additionally, since I have had the honor of serving as the president of the Nakasono Kyoyukai starting this fiscal year, I’ve been able to gain a deep understanding of this traditional local lion dance event, which has been a very educational experience for me.

Furthermore, Okinawa City Mayor Daisuke Hanashiro attended as a guest of honor, and being able to perform the karatedo demonstration for him was a truly valuable experience for me.

After the demonstration, when I went to greet Mayor Hanashiro, I was deeply moved by how kindly he treated me, even though I am still a junior member of the community✨

The fact that this event concluded successfully, providing me with so many lessons and experiences, is all thanks to the members of the Goya-Nakasone Kyoyukai and the audience members who came to watch.

I will continue to strive for improvement in all I do, and I look forward to your continued support 🔥

Thank you so very much ✨✨
