Kadosh, Yehoshua
Yehoshua Kadosh is the head instructor of the Ryukenkan dojo in Kfar Adumim, Israel. In 2001 Yehoshua began training in Ryukyu Kenpo with D'veed Natan, Shuseki Shihan (首席 師範). As Yehoshua quickly rose in rank he began to teach children as an assistant instructor to Natan, Hanshi at the Ryukenkan dojo in Jerusalem. In 2004 Yehoshua was instituted as Director of the Children's Training Department for the Ryukyu Kenpo Kobujutsu Kai. Also, having been a skilled sparring student he was given the responsibility of teaching sparring classes for adults at the Ryukenkan dojo in Jerusalem. Since 2008 Sensei Kadosh has run his own classes in Ryukyu Kenpo, Bogu Kumite, and Kobujutsu at various locations in Israel. Yehoshua Kadosh won 1st Place in the 'Israeli National Open' Championships in both Kobujutsu and Traditional Kata Divisions. By April 2015 he was promoted to Director of Research and Development of the Ryukyu Kenpo Kobujutsu Kai. Sensei Kadosh and Hanshi Natan established a professional dojo in Kfar Adumim, Israel, in February 2018 and they taught classes daily through June of 2019. Yehoshua Kadosh received his 8th Dan rank, Promotion to Kyoshi (教析), and Daishihan (大師範) Menjou (免状) (Master Instructor's Teaching License) from 10th Dan (十段) Red Belt D'veed Natan on January, 1st 2020.
Kadosh, Kyoshi is a graduate of the Wingate program at Tel Aviv University, studied "kappo" (resuscitation techniques), and trained in first aid with Magen David Adom professionals. Teaching has become a specialty with Kadosh, Kyoshi (教析) not only because of the patience and care that he shows to his students, but also because of his methodical approach to teaching and attention to detail that ensures complete understanding of the material demonstrated.
Yehoshua is one of the very best students that I have ever taught. His attention to detail, work ethic, and uncompromising ability to see the
facts
regarding techniques and how they would function in reality, makes him truely a Teachers' Teacher.
