SAI OF RELIEF

CINDY ELLEN RUSSELL / CRUSSELL@STARBULLETIN.COM Bob Masunaga practiced "kata tawata no sai" with ancient Chinese weaponry known as sai at Kapiolani Park yesterday. Masunaga began practicing karate in the sixth grade and has continued despite suffering a major heart attack and a triple bypass surgery. He said he hopes that through his dedication to the martial arts, family and meditation, he will be able to reach "the next spiritual level" in the afterlife.
