Sensei Fausto Carrico's 30th Shorinji Kempo anniversary

After the great reception

On the past 17th November, Sensei Fausto celebrated his30th Shorinji Kempo anniversary. His wife, kenshis and former ones prepared him a surprised dinner with about 90 people. He was so surprised and happy when he saw persons that he didn't see for several years and practice with him twenty years ago.

Recieving the gift

To make this day memorable, everyone offered him a gift, a piece of fine glass with the dates of his examinations and in the end three dots meaning "to be continued", a motivation for him to continue his practice and his teaching.

The friendship was everywhere.

We also showed him a video with many celebration messages from his friends all over the world, congratulating him and showing their friendship.

This dinner was amazing and we were able to see his passionate work as a Sensei and as a human being with everyone inside our Shorinji Kempo family.

Thank you every one who helped us preparing this surprise.
