| Taniguchi-sensei, first trip to Canada, 1996 |
Welcome to Karate The Japanese Way on Tour section of this site. This is a relatively new section on this site and one that will hopefully be expanded over time. Since the development of this site I have had the chance to make some very interesting friends. Karate people come in all walks of life and it is fun to meet them, visit, train together, and learn a few things along the way.
I hope that there will be more and more karate-related trips to come. I sure get some very nice invitations to go to some very interesting places. I hope to take advantage of that as much as possible. So far, I have been invited to several countries in Europe, all over America and Canada, India, and Brazil. Taniguchi-Sensei is excited too about making such trips and I am sure that in the months and years to come we will be knocking on the doors of many different dojos in distant lands.
This section of this site will also host some of the karate-related tournaments and travel I get to do while in Japan too. So, although this section will only get updated seasonally, come by and see what we have got cooking here.
