It’s expected that the event will be a big hit being this one would be conducted by very popular Shiina Sensei after a long interval. This time the JKAWF INDIA leadership had decided to take Shiina Sensei at the remote districts of the state of West Bengal where JKA karate gained immense popularity in recent times.
