Sent to HKF President Kathy Nekomoto for distribution to HKF members:

I would like to announce the opening of Meikyokan dojo. All HKF members - with permission from your sensei of course - are welcome to practice with us!

Location: Kenshikan Dojo (JCCH, first floor)

Hours: Every Wednesday and Friday morning, beginning March 4, 2015. Practices will start at 7 a.m. and end promptly at 8 a.m. We will open the dojo at ~6:30 a.m. so that people can change clothes, etc.

For the time being, our practice schedule will be:

Wednesday / Friday mornings will be OPEN PRACTICE (everyone is welcome).

Monday / Tuesday / Thursday mornings are CLOSED PRACTICE (only for beginners).

As some of you may already know, Meikyokan dojo is brand new, only voted into affiliation with the HKF on February 8, 2015. I wish to offer my deepest gratitude to my late teacher, Yoshinaga sensei for his encouragement and guidance, and of course Mrs. Yoshinaga and family, who have been so kind to me for many years. Many thanks also to HKF President Kathy Nekomoto and Yamada sensei of Kenshikan Kendo Club for their support during the organization phase of this dojo.

Sincerely yours,
Jon Shishido
