Sensei, dear Chris ,

For the third year one after another, we are welcoming you with great pleasure, and we know we are very lucky.Every time, you have been a very good teacher and you have always been very respectful to us and to our work in different dojos.
The attribution of grades to some pupils and some teachers in our club shows how much you and the Aïkibudo Fraternity trust us. We do all our best to deserve it!
We'd like to thank you for being here and for your fidelity to our training in November. We thank you for all you've done for our club and for us for these 3 years.
If other masters came on our tatamis, since our club was created, 15 years ago, only a few of them showed so much devotion, humility and respect.
I could say, I can count them on two fingers of my hand! One of you left us too quickly. We'd like to pay our respect to both you.
To day, and for the first time in its history, the Aïkibudo Kaï association decided to thank the sensei, the man, but also the one we consider like a friend.

Sensei, dear Chris , as the president of the administration council of the Aïkibudo Kaï Association, I'm very proud and upset to give you this plaque, symbol of our club, ans this diploma of member of honour of the Aïkibudo Kaï Association.
