SKKSA regrets to announce the sad passing of Kawasoe Hanshi, Chief Instructor, SKI Austria, on Sunday 17 March 2013, after a severe illness. Many SKKSA karateka have been privileged to have trained and studied with this grand master, whose amazing agility and powerful kicks inspired as well as awed. He was a regular feature at the Locarno Summer Courses and also served on the Black Belt grading committee. SKKSA, its Instructors and students extend our sincere sympathies to all at SKI Austria.
R.I.P. Kawasoe Shihan
