Several Hakuba members attended the 2025 training course hosted at the Suzuki Ha Wado Ryu Dojo (https://www.suzukiha.com/greece/index.php) in Argostoli, Kefalonia, Greece. It was a great opportunity to learn from the club’s chief instructor, Eleni Labiri-Suzuki Sensei 7th Dan over 3, 4-hour training sessions, covering many Kata applications and pairs work. In addition to the in-depth training, it was a great social event with plenty of time to get to know instructors and attendees from other clubs at the designated accommodation, Metaxatos Apartments and bar, and explore the local beaches.
Hakuba was well represented this year. Those in attendance:
Andrea Bond Sensei 3rd Dan, Mike Trevor 1st Dan, Phil Humphries 1st Dan, Glen Suttie 3rd Kyu, Steve Rees 3rd Kyu.
