Hi all Fellow Martial Artists

On the 28th of June 2008 South African Karateka and Fellow Martial Artists (i.e. Jui Jitsu, Kempo, Judo, Kick Boxing, Muay Thai and Aikido) will either be celebrating or remembering the Father of South African Karate-Do Hanshi len Barnes. He was the South African Representative for the legendary Kancho Sosai Mas Oyama (Kyokushinkai). His Senior Student Shihan Bas van Stenis will be organising a Memorial on the 28th of June 2008. "Great and loved are those who have shared the Budo Arts with others". May South African and Global Karate-Do blossom and grow from strength to strength.

Yours in Budo/Wushu

Dr Rubin Frank Rhode, Sensei (Godan)
