Dear friends
please allow us to express our deepest thanks to all participants of both seminar and tournament days of Sacuki 2024! We had around 110 participants from 14 countries. Which is beyond awesome! We trained together, participated in Kyu and Dan exams and competed at the Shiai. And maybe had a beer or two. Or three?
All of this was under experienced supervision and kind guidance of Fuminori Honda sensei (Kyoshi 7th Dan), to whom we are VERY grateful!
Check out awesome photos from Jan Cílek from the event here.
