Kancho Training Program

For those who want to be the best of the best! The Kancho program combines all the resources and training provided by the New England Martial Arts Foundation. 

Kanchos are the instructors and dojo owners on the cutting edge. While a Hanshi and Hanshi-Sei will set a guideline or come up with a revised method of practice, it is the Kancho makes it a reality. A Kancho helps the current generation of students understand and benefit from this wisdom.

A Kancho’s work is relentless and never ending. As such, great effort goes into the training and resources available for these dedicated Martial Artists. Like the Kanchos themselves, the resources and training is continually evolving and improving.

Kancho training is similar to Shihan training, but adds the business element to it.

Training for the certification is similar to the instructor’s training that we have used in the past, and includes.
