On October31 and September 1, 2024, the 14^th Gasshuku with JKA HQ Shiina Sensei took place in Taipei.  76 people (adult:56, children:20) participated.

Some of them came from out side of Taiwan such as Hong Kong, India, Malaysia   and Scotland.  Shiina Sensei taught us Kihon, Kihon-Kumite, Jiyuu-Kumite and Kata.  Kihon training was very helpful for children and beginners.

Kumite practice was very hard, but we were able to grow mentally, I believe.

In Kata training, Shiina Sensei taught us advanced Kata such as Gojyuushiho-Syou, Gankaku, Meikyou, Chinte and so on.

After these practice Shiina Sensei coached us for World cup. We, Taiwan team, will do our best in World cup.

Dan and qualification Examination was carried out and the followings passed.

3rd Dan : 1
2nd Dan : 7
Judge C : 1
Instructor D : 1

After Gasshuku, we enjoyed dinner with Shiina Sensei and finished the 14^th Gasshuku successfully.  Shiina Sensei, thank you very much for teaching us Budo Karate.  Oss.
