Hellow all, This is a sad post to ask a question. On another forum I have been asked about Norio Kawasaki. Apparently he was injuried and in a wheel chair with an exchange (kumite I assume) with Yahara Sensei.
Now the person posting this does not have anything to back him up and all the KWF people I have emailed said they know nothing of this. Might be that they are not talking about it or it is not true. The other thing is apparently Yahara is backing away from his KWF according to the person that posted this.
I have seen NOTHING to back up this persons suggestions and I am basically appealing to the members here for info.
Please PM me if you know anything of this. It is more out of curiosity than anything but I would love any help you may have.

may I politely suggest that true or not this is one we should stay well clear of on this Forum.
The accusation cries louder than the verdict: Abraham Lincoln
from personal experience I can say that gossip chains and guesses are an awful court to be tried in.
Innocent until pronion guilty and fair trial spring to mind.
Sorry James but I don't think this is what we should be discussing here. Just my opinion of course!

This is why I put to PM me, it is due to accusations on a different forum and I am trying to quosh them.
To my knowledge this is a completly unfounded accusation and the other forum is not dealing with it.

For those two people following this thread.....Kawasaki Sensei was injured and is in a wheel chair for now. The rest is speculation and I get from a very good source that Yahara had NOTHING to do with it. The gent that suggested this on youtube is the same that suggested it on another forum and "Made up" the link or was follwoing another rumor of his own. Done and Done...hate drama made up like this.

Leave it go James - and do not have your name connected to it in anyway even though you trying to do good. My advice = take it or leave it!

Hello all. I can personally dispel these rumours.
Norio Kawsaki is my friend. I have seen him within the past few months, and I have known him for many years. He has NEVER been in a wheelchair. He is active in Karate and Iaido. I spoke to him 2 days ago,
His private life is just that. So other than to dispel they myth, I cannot really comment.
Regards to all.
Rob S

This Forum has gained a reputation as a friendly site that contains information and advice, good hearted (even if heated!) debate and a source of learning for us all. As i suggested earlier this is a thread that I think we should avoid and leave to the Forums that enjoy gossip and the like. Although i passionately believe in free speech I feel that whilst Dod has asked me to take care of things I should do all possible to ensure that this Forums good reputation and interesting, useful and educational content (Dod's aim when launching the site) be preserved. therefore, i am locking this thread - a very rare occurence here I am proud to say - and discussions on this matter can be held elsewhere. I hope you understand!
