Blast from the past! Circa 1995.
Much loved Sempai Wylie Caird leading a junior class at our Dojo in Bath Lane. The room was originally the stage/screen area of the old Plaza Theatre.
My daughter Bella aged 2 walking casually into class 😊
Notice the framed Japanese calligraphies on the wall. These currently reside in our Bendigo Dojo in Abel Street. The calligraphies were gifted from the father of a Japanese exchange student (Kyoko Mew) who trained in my Rochester Dojo in 1983. The following year 1984 marked the official commencement of independence under Teshinkai.
