KIAI NEWS & UPDATES  
 
Dear friends,

Most of you are already informed about tragic loss of our member from Macedonia, Tahir Mamudoski. He was great budo teacher, enthusiast and a dear friend. He was very popular in his town. I had the pleasure of visiting his home. It was like a budo temple. I still remember his magnificent katana dated some 80 years ago. It was the best sword I ever had in my hands. Tahir was so happy to have it...

Once again, my deepest respects to this real warrior. Somewhere in the heaven he is now with his teachers - Gichin, Uyeshiba, Musashi...

Rest in peace, my dear friend...

Ivica


NEW HOME PAGE OF KIAI SITE

I hope you like it. As you may have noticed, the address (URL) is still the same. I hope the number on that hit counter will get bigger soon... If you have any suggestions , I will be glad to see them. We still don't have KIAI logo, and I simply don't want to do it all alone...

Sensei Bish  sent couple of interesting photos. This one illustrates the technique we all share. It is ude osae waza, fine example of getting control over opponents leading hand. Someone will ask - where is the news in this one? News is that you KIAI members have started with contributions for KIAI Online Magazine. Apart from sensei Bushey and Bish, I received some promises and suggestions from few more members. Let us hope that we will enjoy articles, techniques and other contributions from all KIAI and budo friends.
