Welcome to our "not so new" Shodan, Ricardo Vasquez Jr. ![]()
He has been training with us for years with dedication. He passed his Hu Shin Kai Shodan exam in May, and he finally received his certificates and belt today! Our certificate comes from Japan, and it's a special paper used for temples and shrines that is designed to last for years. Certificates are written by a professional artist with Nakamura Sensei's signature and stamps (Japanese Hanko). Belts are made in Japan from the raw material, and embroideries are hand-sewn. We invest a lot because we keep a high standard for our black belts, and Ricardo definitely deserves it. ![]()

I am very saddened by the news that Master Yutaka Yaguchi has passed away. He spent the last hours of his life with people who were very close to him, and he peacefully rested with his family members on his side.![]()

He was a great Karate-Ka, but he was a wonderful person above all. He was training Karate until the very end, and he was looking forward to coming to Hu Shin Kai Karate Dojo to instruct in our seminar. I have known Yaguchi Sensei since my teenage days, and I was extremely lucky to be able to reunite with him recently. As one of the last people to train with him, I will never forget a single moment that I spent with him.![]()

I must admit that I am devastated, but I know that Yaguchi Sensei would not want me to stop my journey. I will head to the Dojo and try to train what he taught me. Deep condolences to his family. What a loss to the Karate and Budo world.![]()
Yaguchi Sensei, thank you very much for making a big impact on my life and for your kindness, and it was truly my honor to know you. Please rest in peace.![]()
