The Saikyouji Temple grounds are a beautiful serene setting in which to train and meditate. While at the temple, members sleep on traditional futons and eat Japanese food prepared for them there.

The days of training end with testing and demonstrations. The Japan training and camaraderie among the members brings out a sense of accomplishment that cannot compare to any other seminar or test.

This year members from Hombu (main dojo), Axl Dojo branch, Shinsei Dojo branch and Tokyo branch will join guests from other styles of Karate.

After the training portion has been completed, members take a trip to Kyoto. They explore the city, go sightseeing or shopping, and try new foods in the city that was once the capital of Japan during the feudal era.
