USA Karate Senior Master’s Caucus
USA Karate Senior Master's Caucus Chairman
|
Hanshi George E. Anderson founded the USA Karate Senior Master’s Caucus with the approval of the USA National Karate-do Federation, the National Governing Body for Olympic Karate in the United States. Hanshi Anderson’s vision was to create a body where Senior American Karate-ka could meet and participate in the activities of the Olympic Karate movement and have their contributions to this movement recognized. The Senior Master’s Caucus does not have a role in the direct operation of the USANKF but does make recommendations to the USANKF and provides support for USA Karate activities.
Benefits to the USA-NKF The Senior Master’s Caucus allows the karate masters to be a part of USA Karate and gives USA Karate the ability to tap the vast resources and experience of senior karate-ka without involving them in everyday operations. All Senior Masters Caucus Members are Life Members of USA Karate. Purpose: · To recognize and represent the views of the high-ranking masters within the Unites States. · To give elders and seniors karate-ka a role in developing and maintaining the values and traditions of historic karate. · To give voice to consensus opinions of the masters · To be available for consultation and advice · To assist in reconciling the traditional values of the martial arts with the requirement of competitive karate and the United States Olympic Committee, · To periodically provide the Executive and the Board with a clear and understandable report on observed anomalies, inconsistencies, biases, and unproductive bickering in general. |
