When I was in Okinawa in 2015, I went to his dojo and Karate museum. In addition to being an incredible Goju martial artist, he is a world renowned Kanji artist. It was an honor and blessing visiting with him. He made me several Kanji art pieces that I bought and still have up in my home. Arigato gozaimasu Tetsuhiro

It's hard to teach and old dog new tricks! When I started my way in Goju Karate I was 47 years old. Learning a martial art was always something I wanted to do, but I never made it a priority. Then Bob Meyer came along and introduced me to Mr. Charles Duff. My life was changed from that moment on. I am honored to say after 8 years I have achieved the first degree black belt rank of Shodan-Ho in Tenshi Goju Kai. With a full heart I want to thank everyone from around the world that supported and encouraged me to continue my journey. Thank you to Hanshi Lou Angel for teaching your style, Tenshi, to some of the greatest men I know, that have taught it to me. Thank you Shihan Duff for the blessing of allowing me to be one of your students. Your patience and understanding in preparing me for this honor has been overwhelming over the years. We have traveled to Okinawa Japan, the birthplace of Karate, together to quench our thirst for knowledge in this martial art. You have taught me lessons about myself that are rarely learned at my age. You have opened my mind to a higher understanding of this life and the people that come and go while living it. To me sir you are perfect in your imperfections. God puts blessings in your life daily. We must ignore the distractions of man to take action on those blessings. Thank you all for making me a better father, friend and man. God bless all my fellow martial arts brothers and sisters. I look forward to seeing you on 6.19.21 at the NCMA Hanshi Lou Angel Memorial Tournament! 🥋🇺🇲 P.S. Yes, Mr. Miyagi would be proud of Shawn son!😉😁😎 Osss
