On 20-22 November we played host to Sensei Dario Marchini (6 dan) and Sensei Christina Restelli (6 dan).
Sensei Dario Marchini is famous for his excellent technique, he was also the only person who's got championship in both world karate federation: WUKO (now WKF) and ITKF. Also the coach of italian national team to 2009.
His wife, Sensei Christina Restelli is also a wonderful competitor with many important medals.
First Sensei Dario led training for black belts only and they did Sochin (Friday evening). On Saturday we had all together two training sessions, 2 hours each. First part of training was always conducted by Sensei Marchini and we train together with lower grades. It was special Taikyoku form on Saturday - with changed block and punches (I had a fever so I was absent on the first training, especially I've passed with this fever my exam the day earlier). Then the advanced group did some kumite exercises.
