思い出がよみがえました。加藤先生は本当に偉大な人物でした。
I just heard about Kato Sensei this morning and was shocked beyond imagine. We
just trained with him so recently and he looked so well. What happened? It is a great
loss to the Aikido community. He was truly an inspiration for me and looked forward to
train with him all the time. Our prayers and condolences will go out to his family. He
will always be in our hearts every time we step on the mat.

On behalf of Shin-do Shotokai and my fellow Technical Directors; Steve Gilmour and
John Sowden, I, Alan Neish would wish to
express our deepest regret at the sad
passing of Kato Sensei. Our organisation
practices Shotokai Karate as taught by
Harada Sensei and through our past and
on-going practice with Stephen Baker we
were introduced to the way of Kato Sensei

of practice as practiced by O-Sensei with our Karate and we are deeply saddened at his
death. I had the immense honour and privilege to have Kato Sensei staying a few days
in my house only 3 weeks before his passing as he visited Scotland for the first time. We
had a fantastic course with him in our
National Sports Headquarters at
Largs with his fellow practitioners Ido
Sensei, Kiyoko Azui and Stephen
Baker. We in Shin-do Shotokai are
deeply honoured that he agreed to
