West Point Seminar a huge success!

The 6th annual West Point seminar was a huge success! We had over 6 schools represented and over 50 individuals attending. Soke Emilio Claudio Jr. presided over the clinic with a watchful eye as 6 high ranking Sensei's took turns demonstrating and conducting mini workshops for the students. Master Sensei Luis Ruperto wowed the crowd with a Ninjitsu demonstration that included a sword kata and armed and unarmed defense against knife and gun. The Hoteikan schools demonstrated their specialties to the delight of Soke. Soke handed out several promotions including a 6th Dan rank to Col. Hector Morales, a 4th Dan to Major Ben Ring and officially turned over the System to Dai Shihan Santiago Armstrong with the promotion to 10th Dan. The seminar lasted over 7 hours with everyone completely exhausted but throughly satisfied with the outcome. Photos and videos of this wonderful event will follow in the next couple of days.
