Last weekend, Rising Sun Dojo was honored to host day 2 of the 2 day Kannagara Aiki in Kissimmee's annual taisai event. Led by Koichi Barrish sensei, attendee's traveled from all across the US to participate and take part in an amazing in depth study of internal structure and organization.

Yesterday the dojo held it's 19th Annual Dojo Picnic...lot's of good food...good people...and good times.
Thank you all for your continued support of our dojo.

An excellent video on reiho...which unfortunately, is often translated as simply "showing courtesy"...it is much, much more.
