Episode 3 of the documentary series Sensei: Masters of Okinawan Karate is now on YouTube! After a couple of months working on it, it is a great way to end the Heisei era!

A huge thank you to Koichi Nakasone for giving up his time to be interviewed and demonstrating his techniques. Thank you to James, Becka, Angelina, Yuki, Michael and Gary for help create the video. James literally got a little choked up in the making of this episode 🙂

Please share via social media to get the word out, and also thumbs up, comment and subscribe on YouTube so that it is recommended by the algorithm to more viewers.

This crowd-funded documentary series would not be possible without the help of the international karate community. Thank you all.

We’re making progress with each episode, learning new techniques, using better equipment etc. but I see so many possibilities about how to keep improving. It’s an exciting challenge.
