The grading test was held at hombu (headquarters), that is located in Tadotsu in Japan, and the examiners were Onishi-sensei and Kawashima-sensei. Anders did the grading test together with his friend since many years John McCulloch, who is shibu-chō in Toronto, Canada.

At the same time they also obtained status as 1 kyū kōshi-in (1st class examiner).

    Hi Tony

    Thank you.
    If you let me know the errors in the text I can fix them. Although I am not as extreme as you when it comes to language, I do want it to be as correct as possible. 😉
    (and none of the people that help out to administrate this page has English as their first language)
    You could either email me (address is my first name and you can probably figure out what domain name) or send it through the contact form on this site.

    /Anders
