Transcript of Hanshi Bernaschewice’ words:

(without any language corrections)

“First of all, thank you very much. Without you, I wouldn’t have been able to do this. And I want to thank you very much for that.

Without you people I have cannot make it also in my whole life what I have done. So thank you very much for your supporting and loyalty on the house. The house is not only me, it’s we and that’s for me important.

So I hope that in the future, when I will be the Samurai, I hope that the Shihans continue with that work.

It’s not necessary to be one person who’s important. We are important. That’s for me important to say, that we continue on the Federation Geido Tao Chi Kihon. It was a lot of work for me and I hope that everybody supports that Federation in the way that we have done it.

So thank you very much for the supporting and for the nice presents and for the nice name. Thank you very much. Domo arigato gozaimasu.

We have a new Shihan. He has first to show that he is a Shihan. So he has to do the Kampai with the Senseis. Shihan Roger [Vangeneugden] Kampai!

Kampai! Kampai! Kampai!”
