Publisher's Synopsis
As a charter member of S.T.O.R.M. at the Atkinson dojo, I personally have seen this team progress from its embryonic stage of a fun group of teens giving a helping hand to a large, highly-trained group of young martial artists who are instrumental in developing talented Uechi Black Belts. I started my Uechi training many years ago. To this day, I have never had a dull moment. However, the adventures seemed to multiply when I was asked to join S.T.O.R.M. My only hope is that all the new members can also learn and enjoy from this team the way I have.Uechiryu, as well as the rest of the Martial Arts world, is rapidly changing. More people are training. Younger practitioners are achieving levels of proficiency never before believed possible. This is a reflection of the increased level of instruction. Therefore, I firmly believe that the members of S.T.O.R.M., along with the Assistant Instructors and Instructors, are the people who are shaping.... THE FUTURE OF UECHIRYU.
