2022 Uchi Deshi Summer Camp

Uchi-deshi is a Japanese term for a live-in student or apprentice who trains under and assists a sensei on a full-time basis.  Sensei Buchanan's goal is that the 2022 Uchi Deshi camp will serve as a catalyst of change in the lives of a chosen few individuals in the DC Metro Area.

The Uchi Deshi Camp will take place at Forge Dojo and on the surrounding property.  Camp will run daily from 9:00-4:00 during the week of 8/8/22 through 8/12/22.  Participation is open to anyone interested in pursuing serious Kyokushin karate training and desires well-rounded development for themselves or their family; though the Camp is designed with rising 4th- 12th Graders in mind
