| Okinawa Kenpo Grandmaster Seikichi Odo Hanshi Odo, 10th Dan, Okinawa Kenpo Karate Kobudo, passed away March 24, 2002. President and Director of the Ryukyu Hon Kenpo Kobujutsu Federation, Daisensei Seikichi Odo is unique in that he is a Hanshi (Grand Master Level Teacher) in Karate and Kobujutsu. It is rare to find a Sensei that is both. Daisensei holds the rank of Kudan (9th degree) as awarded by his Okinawan peers. Daisensei Odo instructional lineage is traced back to some of Okinawa's great martial art instructors. Daisensei's primary instructor was Shirgeru Nakamura, the founder of Okinawa Kenpo. In Kobujutsu Daisensei Odo learned from Mitsu Kakazu and Shinpo Matayoshi. Master Odo was also positively influenced by Seiki Toma in his karate and kobujutsu. For decades Daisensei Odo has lead the martial arts world as one of the finest teacher-of-teachers of karate and kobujutsu. |
