Sad news for USNF members

Miyako Tanaka Price, Naginata Hanshi, passed away the morning of 27 May. This is a very sad day for Naginata people around the world who will greatly miss Tanaka Sensei. We are so very grateful for all her efforts to spread both Atarashi Naginata and Tendo Ryu Naginata-jutsu in America, Canada, and Europe. Her knowledge, wisdom, enthusiasm, and friendship will be sorely missed.

A memorial service will be planned later in the summer.
