Dante student

[tshadowchaser]

For those that asked or might have wondered if the late Count Dante (John Keehan) had any students still alive and teaching .
Master John Sharkey Jr. an 8th degree in Shorei ryu and teaches in Naperville andMormence Ill. claims to be a student of John Keehan. Mr Sharkey is supposed to be the current president of the American Karate Association (yes the same assoc. that was started by Robert Trias (keehan's instructor)

This is posted as info only and I have no more knowledge on any of this I learned this much yesterday.
