On behalf of all the members of GBC Japan, we wish all the participants of the festival lots of axé, good energy, and love from Tokyo, Japan. It is with great sadness that we couldn’t send a team to represent GBCJ at this year’s World Meet.
We hope 2010 holds a better fortune for our group, and the lessons we learned in the past give us the strength to grow in 2009.
