Kumamoto Country of Fire


Early in the summer of 2007 I received an invitation from Dennis Clark in Kumamoto to attend an International Gasshuku hosted by Aiki Manseido, an organisation headed by ‘Dai Sensei’ Kansho Sunadomari. I had corresponded with Dennis by email on a couple of occasions, and was genuinely surprised to be invited.

I was one of several foreigners drawn from various parts of the world, including the United States, Korea, Slovakia, France and the UK. For me it was the opportunity of a lifetime – a chance to go to Japan! I accepted immediately, once I had got permission from my wife.
