Eaku Kata


I am hoping someone in the group can help me find resources and training in
the Okinawan Eaku (eiku, eku, etc). Last spring I was at a camp where we
learned the kata Sunakake Eakudi. I understand this particular version of
the kata came from the Yamane Ryu School through Saburo Kochinda.

After working on it since that time, it would be great to find someone in
the Midwest (Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin) to further my traininig and
understanding of this great buki.

Thanks in advance for your help.
