Shihan would like to thank all the students of NYGKA for their

commitment to excellence.

I would like to thank all the students at NYGKA for their hard work and dedication throughout the year. Particularly those who are participating in this year's Spring Spectacular.

I want to thank my very fine staff, Sensei Eric, Sensei Caroleann, Sensei Zach, Sensei Amy, Sensei Anne, Sensei Steve and Sensei Jacki for sharing and caring so much. I also want to thank my assistant instructors, Ben Kandler and Hiroki Tanaka who will be leaving us for college. We wish them well and I am sure we will see them both next year.

Finally, I want to thank the parents for their commitment to NYGKA and their support of their child's martial art education. Without your support, none of these wonderful events would be possible. Making a student happy, self- reliant and loving is our goal at NYGKA. Thank you for allowing us to make this a reality.
