Saturday Practice Schedule With Daniel Chemla

Daniel Chemla, one of the first 3 people who received their 5th degree black belts (Shotokan's highest rank achievable) outside of Japan and one of our most senior members in the world Shotokan organization, will lead classes which are open to all levels on Saturdays.

Daniel has trained directly under Mr. Ohshima for 35 years and is a founding member of France Shotokan. He was also instrumental in the founding of Swiss Shotokan, Israel Shotokan, and Gabon Shotokan.

In order to give both Berkeley and San Francisco members the opportunity to practice with Daniel, the following rotation for classes has been arranged:

August 8 San Francisco Presidio YMCA
August 15 Downtown Berkeley YMCA

Practices in San Francisco are held from 9:00-10:30 am at the Presidio YMCA's Main Post Gym off of Lincoln and Funston, in the Aerobics Studio.

Practices in Berkeley are held from 1:00-2:30 pm at the Berkeley YMCA's Aerobics Room.
