” The ultimate aim in the art of Karate lies not in victory nor defeat, but in the perfection of the character of its participants”. (Gichin funakoshi, Founder of Shotokan Karate)
There are many benefits of being a karate practitioner, from physical fitness , decision making to self defense and stress release.
I was very fortunate and grateful to have studied under very prominent. Karate instructors, O Sensei Tsuruoka, Sensei Prystupa, Sifu Wagner.
I have studied several styles of martial Arts, although I am primarily focused on traditional Japanese karate, I believe in learning and teaching different aspects and styles.
The only limitations we have are the ones we place on ourselves.
Sensei John lima.
