"It was an honor for me to train with Enoeda Sensei's students. I was a little worried and very respectful of these people, some of whom were black belts even before I started training Karate." shared Sensei Nenov.

In addition to training, the one-week program was rich in sightseeing. Thanks to Sensei Mervin O'Donnell for the wonderful organization and hospitality. Ossu!
