Ramlan Ortega Sensei awarded 6th Dan

Osu!

Our Ramlan Ortega Sensei was awarded his rokudan (6th dan) today by his teacher Joe Thambu Shihan, a momentous occasion for the Shudokan schools of Singapore and Malaysia which he leads. In his presentation, Thambu Shihan expressed his thoughts on how past a certain level of seniority the emphasis is less of what the art does for you and more about what you do for the art - something which Ramlan Sensei has pursued with tireless dedication traversing both countries to establish and build our communities. It has been an honour sensei, congratulations!
