Big News
Mr. John Sepulveda, a first-generation Ed Parker black belt, will take the 10th degree rank in September at Mr. Bob White’s studio in Costa Mesa, CA. Mr. White is holding a fundraiser for Mr. Barney Coleman of Dublin, Ireland, who had a stroke months ago. Funds will be used to help with medical bills.
The seminars and the ceremony will be on Sept. 8.
My congratulations to Mr. Sepulveda. We came up together and he has done an exemplary job of keeping the flame burning.
