Kamal Advani - Indonesia
My name is Kamal Advani. Though originally Indian(as in India and not Red Indians of America :-)), I have been settled in Jakarta, Indonesia for about 14 years now. Our organization is called the Bandung Karate Club(BKC), and we practise a blend of Kyokushinkai and Shotokan although our logo bears the mark of Kyokushin. Generally speaking, we follow Shotokan kata but Kyokushin kihon/basics. Kumite is semi-contact. I've only trained for 6 years and currently ranked 1st Dan.

Sara Aoyama - USA
My name is Sara Aoyama. I live in Brattleboro, Vermont, and trained at the Brattleboro School of Budo in Shorin-ryu for almost four years. Currently I am training in Kishaba-Ryu at less than snail's pace, but hopefully with much committment. I also am a beginning tai chi student with Wolfe Lowenthal, a student of Cheng Man Ch'ing.
I work free lance as a writer and translator (Japanese->English) and spent 13 years living in Japan. I am the mother of two teenagers, both of whom have also trained in karate and kobudo.

Anand Appoo - South Africa
My name is Anand Appoo and I would firstly like to thank Sempai Narker for his initiative in creating this list.I live in Cape Town, South Africa and practise a loose combination of Kyokushinkai and Ashihara Karate.

I have dabbled in a couple of other arts in the past few years, namely American Kenpo, Jujitsu, Kung Fu (Wing Chun, Tai Chi Chuan, Seven Star Praying Mantis and Chang Chuan).
