Having trained and studied under Naraki Hara (Elmore Sensei’s first primary instructor), I taught along with them at the dojo on New Lots Ave. around 1974-75. Elmore Sensei’s style was initially Hakkoryu. Sparrow Sensei trained in that as well under Hara Shihan. Feel free to get back to me at kapco668@aol.com.
