Roger Hannoset

It is with deep sadness that we learn the death of Roger Hannoset.

Mr Hannoset was one of the founders of our Federation and an emblematic figure of our disciplines and martial arts in Belgium.

He played an essential role in the introduction of Jodo and Naginata in Belgium, and his commitment as a promoter of our martial arts will remain engraved in our memories. He achieved the grades of:

7th dan Aikido
6th Dan Judo
4th Dan Naginata
3rd Dan Kendo
3rd Dan Jodo

Registration B.00022 and founder of the Meibukan Wolluwe St Lambert.

We send our sincere condolences to his family, loved ones, as well as his friends and students.

Thank you, Roger, for everything you have accomplished.
