One thought on “St. Louis Dojo attends IKA International Seminar in Seattle

  1. Congratulations Sensei Martin, long overdue! And thank you for inspiring me so long ago, 1988 I believe? I still remember the day that Sensei promoted me to Ikyu in KoKonDo. Yourself and Sensei Minner have instilled a desire in me long ago that grows stronger each day!
