USA IFK Summer Camp 2021

The USA IFK Summer Camp was held 16-18 July with around 100 students participating over the weekend. Unfortunately due to US Covid restrictions our President Shihan David was unable to attend so IFK leader Shihan Mike Monaco stepped in to direct the camp with the help of Sensei Kamil Maras and Sensei Claibourne Henry

Message from USA Chairman Shihan Sean Schenker:

Osu!

Having had a few days to reflect on the incredible training camp & celebration of our Kyokushin spirit, I first wanted to extend a huge Thank You to Shihan Monaco for his leadership, vision, and guidance. We are truly so very lucky to share our path with him, and we appreciate every moment we get to learn from his wisdom & experience.

I want to thank all the incredible Shihan, Sensei, and Sempai that traveled near and far to be here to train & participate. Your support, enthusiasm, and skill are unmatched & are the very fabric of what our organization is built upon.

Next, to the Kohai that attended with an open heart and open mind to enhance their skill, improve their spirit, and continue the path of self-improvement, YOU truly are the heart and soul of the USA IFK – you are the future.

We appreciate you – we see you – we have immense gratitude for your efforts and courage.
