Message from Sensei Tetsuji Nakamura – IOGKF World Chief Instructor

I would like to express my sincere condolences on the death of Sensei Teruo Chinen. I never had chance to meet with Sensei Chinen personally, but I have heard many good stories about him from Higaonna Sensei and senior members of IOGKF. His contribution to spreading traditional Okinawan Goju Ryu Karate was enormous. May God bless his soul.
