When I was a child, I was in a delicate health and suffered from anemia. I was always a subject to bullies. I didn't have any confidence and couldn't even make eye contact. Then, I got involved in Karate. I started practicing Karate seriously. After 10 years, I won an All Japan Karate Tournament Championship, and 5 years after, I became a World Karate Tournament Champion. During that period, I completed the 100 men Karate combat challenge and I was able to realize that we all have unlimited potential within us.

One's ability is developed by continuous efforts. Confidence gained by continuous Karate practice will expand our ability infinitely and enable us to challenge anything in life. From my 25 years experience as a Karate instructor, I can say that Karate is not necessarily something on which you must spend a lot of time or intense training. Rather, it should be something you enjoy. When you enjoy it, you can continue. I will provide enjoyable Karate classes to all of you.
