Does anyone here train at tokyo honbu (IKO1)?

[buckette]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone on the forum trains at tokyo honbu (iko1). I am looking for a Sensei Takumi (don't know his surname) who has just returned from teaching a dojo in Melbourne, Australia.

I was fortunate enough to have a few training sessions with him in Melbourne and would like to know that he has settled back into Honbu life well.

Osu,
thanks

I am not aware of anyone training at the honbu now....

There are several members in Japan now training, but they are at other dojo's...

Yeah i'm not really sure of the situation in Tokyo, oh well, thanks anyway!

Does IKO1 have a main headquarters where they are teaching classes?

[Fire!]

Are there still many uchideshis at Honbu? osu

Sure do. Honbu is still going strong & I know they have a new 'elite program' that I think has several foreigners but I don't know if they are uchi deshi or if the uchi deshi program evolved into the elite program.
