Dear Signor Sindaco Paolo Campanella, I hope this posts finds you in the best of health. It is with great pleasure that I have been invited by Leo Gianotti to join your community on the weekend of 28 - 30 of May for the auspicious occasion of the dojo opening project. The word "dojo" is Japanese for "the place of the way" and represents a cultural hotspot for people of communities to engage in their arts and health practices. This dojo project aligns perfectly with your strategic intent to manifest the beauty of your local region and gather an international audience there. Indeed the fundamental point of any cultural activity is that humans find a way of connection and common understanding in their way regardless of differences in origin, gender and age. Not one cultural activity is the best but all cultural activities shine their own beauty and all are characterized in their ability to connect humans in a unique way. Therefore, I congratulate you on opening your doors to the international community and to the diversity of culture in general. With these words, I do wish you the very best in your endeavor to become a flourishing and prosperous region of Italy and of the world. Kind regards, Lawrence Warry 5th dan Aikikai Aikido
