2nd Funakoshi Cup

Sensei John Bolosan

The 2nd Funakoshi Cup, local karate competition took place in Denver second year in a row. It is a growing event organized by Sensei John Bolosan, 6th DAN, head of Funakoshi Shotokan Karate Association in Colorado.  It was good opportunity for many local karate practitioners to perform their skills and demonstrate improvement. Okinawa Dojo karatekas delivered good results and presented strong team spirit, as always. We would like to congratulate all participants with great demonstration and thank all the parents for the support! Awesome photo and video report was kindly provided by our friends www.DenverOK.com
