2006 Urban Legacy Cup
In this Goju Ryu Karate group
are many fine people and masters of karate
that I have had the priviledge to work with over the years.
Our common bond
is that we all were touched by the genius of the
Maestro - Peter Urban.
They are genuinely inspiring.

Another friend of Combat Karate is Sensei Dave Anderson . He invited Hanshi Viggiano to his dojo to introduce Johnny Kuhl to his class around the anniversary dates of Masters Ron Taganashi and Johnny Kuhl's passing. Black Belt Howard Turoff made the arrangements and is standing at Sensei Anderson's right.
