The following list includes the non-Japanese karateka who have come to Japan and had private lessons with me. Others have come to train, but the following karateka have: (1) officially applied to be renshusei; (2) have been accepted; and (3) have fully paid their dues, come, and completed training as renshusei. Accordingly, every individual listed below has my utmost respect for talking with their karate and having integrity, and true Karate-Do Seishin. Omedetto gozaimasu!!!
