My Kenshusei Journey: Week 4
Glenn Riley with Richard Amos and Takeshi Kitagawa
20 March · New York, NY, United States
Final week of Kenshusei training at the WTKO Honbu Dojo in New York. Although I still have a week left, the training has been incredible, intense, and very rewarding. I have missed my family terribly, and I will miss everyone at the WTKO Honbu and Earth Yoga.

Janet Harrison It won't be long now Glenn as your dad said the John Smiths is waiting xxx

Helen Thornham This looks like a great transferable skill to me: I can see all kinds of potential for school uniforms, towels etc 😉

A fantastic, tough class this evening. The atmosphere is always brilliant ! I'm not too sure about my Heian Shodan skills anymore though Jessica 😊

Colin Needham But what a place to study Heian Shodan. And with Enoda Sensei watching behind you!

Great morning training with one of Sensei's private students who I will really miss. Class covered the last two of the 26 Kata I have been lucky enough to be taken through ( Meikyo and Wankan). My last full day in New York before heading home tomorrow. It has been an unbelievable experience.

Many thanks to everyone for following my journey. I have thoroughly enjoyed my Kenshusei training, although to be honest, I am drained! Richard Amos Sensei certainly pushes you to the extreme. I wish to thank Sensei and Yanti Amos for being so kind to me.
