Michiko sensei and me at the Renmei demonstration in 1992 (maybe 1991 don't recall exactly)

Onaga Yoshikatsu, sensei's son, this was taken either in 1989 or 1990. Yoshikatsu is now a Police Officer, and continues to train as his schedule permits. You can see Michiko sensei as a teenager in the background training with her father.

Miguel Angel Ramos, sensei and me, in the dojo in 1995 prior to the Pre-world tournament.

Iha Koe and me in the Dojo. Iha-san returned to active training and teaching when Onaga sensei opened the Shinjinbukan, he was the assistant instructor for the first few years I was at the Onaga dojo. Iha-san was Yuchoku sensei's brother-in-law and student. When Higa sensei passed away in 1994  Iha-san returned to the Kyudokan to try to keep things running. He is now the most senior member of the Kyudokan. I spent many hours with Iha-san learning Jion and Kukan-tsuki.

Cleaning the dojo after every class is paramount. We scrub, wipe and polish nearly every inch of the dojo after each class.
