Sensei Richard Heselton, 5. Dan (JKA) - interview, 拓大空手部リチャード先生インタビュー【Akita's Karate Video】

On the occasion of the Takushoku University Karate Club Gasshuku in summer 2019, Shinji Akita had the chance for an interview with Sensei Richard Heselton.

Heselton Sensei was born in Whitby, northeast England, and started practicing Karate at the age of 12. In 1993, he became a member of the K.U.G.B. Junior National Squad under Sensei Andy Sherry and Sensei Frank Brennan. Two years later, Heselton Sensei came to Japan and started training at the JKA Honbu under Sensei Tatsuya Naka. From 2000 to 2004, he entered the Takushoku University Karate Club under Sensei Katsunori Tsuyama and became the first foreign captain of the Karate team two years later, leading it to various successes. Today, Heselton Sensei is coach of the Takudai Karate club. He teaches at the faculty of International Studies at Takushoku University.

A big thank you to Heselton Sensei for this interview on his very interesting and unique background.

Please stay tuned and also check out our other videos on the Takudai Gasshuku.
