Yes, in the middle, the future USA national kumite champion.
Watching this young boy grow into this
amazing athlete makes me smile.
Brian has it all. Talent, speed, skill, heart
and personality plus. See video.
This is a great video, well worth your time, I promise.
Brian has been Demura Sensei's student since 1987.
Go Brian! You have worked hard, you deserve it
and God knows you have the talent.
