We believe that the above information is now definitive, but it would be advisable to check the site from time to time in case there are unavoidable alterations to the timetable.

We have been informed that this will be Kancho Kanazawa's final visit to Scotland, the last chance to be instructed by a karateka who is one of the world's greatest martial artists.
