IKKF Winter Training
WOW !!! What can I say, MKTC Hosted the IKKF
Winter Training on Feb 16 & 17. But what was scheduled as a 2 day event turned
into a 6 day event when The
Heilman's and Dan Rupert flew in on Wednesday and did not leave until the
following Tuesday. The extra attention given to the MKTC students and the extra
classes taught every day by Hanshi Heilman and Dan Rupert were UNBELIEVABLE.
