rosco21 Posted June 5, 2002 Posted June 5, 2002 I started taking karate when I was eleven. I trained under Howie Harvey and Gehrig Justice. I am a 1st Dan in Shotokan Karate. I have always enjoyed the martial arts and look forward to talking with other martial artists.

He holds rank under Sensei Harvey but he has trained in my classes as an advacned student and asst. sensei. (General George S.

spinninggumby Posted June 5, 2002 Posted June 5, 2002 Welcome We seem to be getting a lot of newcomers who are from the Shotokan discipline and that is really cool Always willing to learn more about the Japanese arts since I have always been immersed in Chinese and Korean ones for the most part.
