Congratulations to lifelong martial artist and dedicated jujitsu/judoka Joshua Yoshimoto! Josh received a well deserved promotion to Brown Belt last night just before he heads off to police academy in order to join the Orange County Sheriffs Department.

Prior to joining the Kaito Gakko Ohana in 2004, Josh was already an avid martial arts practicioner - a black belt in Tang Soo Do (he never said a word about this to anyone).
His passion for martial arts has always been present along with his great sense of humor and honest dedication. Josh has made many contibutions to Kaito Gakko over the past few years* including 1st place wins at the local and national level.

Congratulations Josh!

NOTE: Josh would love to hear from his Kaito Gakko family while he is away in academy, you can send your words of encouragement / contact him here.
