On Sat 13th May 2023, Tino Ceberano Hanshi, founder and Chief Instructor of IGK, visited Melbourne. We enjoyed a special training session with Tino Hanshi which was followed by presentations to black belts following their gradings last March. It was an iconic moment as the years of hard work and dedication to our art was reflected with new belts and titles for our senior students and instructors.

IGK Victoria congratulates those awarded with their new belts. The grading ranks and new titles are…
