Chicago Tokubetsu Keiko Kai
We will be holding a joint practice with our friends from the Buddhist Temple of Chicago on April 16th, beginning at 9:00 AM at the Japanese Culture Center in Lakeview. The training will be fun and will include sharing knowledge between multiple styles of swordsmanship and other koryu. We are looking forward to great training with everyone deepening our friendship!
