Honorary Dan certificate

[The Void]

Well, I got a big honour in the post yesterday. The JKA has recognised my work in kendama promotion, as well as my exam from last summer, and granted me an "honorary degree". I'd like to thank Maruishi-san and Matsunaga-san of the JKA for granting this honour to me, and Shimadera-san for proposing me to the JKA for it.

Onwards and upwards! Here's to more and more kendama players throughout the world!

Congratulations. If someone is promoting Kendama in Europe, then it's you.
Looking forward to see an honorary dan bearer in Lublin.
