In the past couple of weeks, two stalwarts of British Karate have been promoted to the rank of 8th Dan.
Sensei Alan Flook, Chief Instructor of the Western Karate Union based in Bristol and Sensei Gabe Operanta, Chief Instructor of the WSKA, and Karate Wales Officer, have both been deservedly promoted to 8th Dan after decades of service and dedication to the art of Karate.
The Welsh Bushi-Kai would like to congratulate Alan and Gabe on their promotion, and would like to thank them for their contribution to Karate over so many years.
