Another glimpse of Ueichi Ryu

 I have written previously how moving to New Hampshire I discovered that Ueichi Ryu was a very serious system.

Buzz Durkin had a Uechi school near Derry NH where I lived, My 3 Ueichi brown belts who joined my program had received their training at Buzz Durkin's dojo.

A good glimpse of the American Ueichi experience can be seen in the following video of Judy Durkin (Buzz's wife) at a Ueichi Summerfest.

Ueichi from a different perspective can be seen in the following video.

On February 24, 2019, the Okinawa Karate Grand Demonstration was held at KITTE near Tokyo Station.
