I love open air training. Here i spend time helping a student once taught over35 years ago as teen. He has become my 3rd Promoted Shodan. Im coaching him on the integration of aikijujitsu Asa life saving tool within the Jaribu System. It’s not sport! It’s intention, timing , position and knowledge. The first to cross in 2025, My disciple, Ernesto Negron whom i met in our dojo 216-06 Jamaica avenue which was the6th iteration of The Austin School of Karate - Hollis. We all are carry 60 years of Martial arts history. I would be remiss not to mention the others in this 2024 Kuro obi crossing. Raja Antone Mike Benton
