The Noguchi TaiKai was a fantastic training event. Congratulations to Sean Askew from BKR Budo for putting on an event to showcase Noguchi Sensei’s bujutsu teachings. The Soke of Koto Ryu demonstrated and taught the finer points of this Ryu and more! Special guest instructors Mark Lithgow, Alex Esteve and Marcio Deshi also added unique insight and training opportunities. The TaiKai was such a success that Noguchi Sensei indicated that it would become a yearly event! In talking with other practitioners everyone is excited to get back to Japan and train. We are all hoping Japan opens up soon! That is just one reason this TaiKai was so successful in that everyone is just so excited to see the material directly from the source!
