◆Daily effort in karate is the key to solid results It all started when he was just 3 years old, inspired by his older brother. At first, he learned to have fun, living in his older brother's shadow. However, as I entered elementary school and junior high school, my parents forced me to continue.
At first, he sometimes went against his parents' wishes, but over time, karate became an integral part of his life. For him, daily karate practice has become more than just exercise, it has become a vector for spiritual growth and personal growth.

◆YOSHIN-KAN (Karate, Kickboxing, Aiki Jujutsu) YOSHIN-KAN is a martial arts karate dojo that descends from Shotokan, which developed after the war. There have been multiple Shotokan style karate dojos in the Hachioji, Sagamihara, and Tama areas. In 2000, YOSHIN-KAN became independent from the new karate class and kickboxing team of Nozaki Kaikan, a Shotokan school of practical karate, as well as the Tama branch. In 2004, we established Hombu Dojo in Hijirigaoka, Tama City, Tokyo, and have opened dojos in Tama City (Hijirigaoka, Seiseki Sakuragaoka, Nagayama, Kaitori, Karakida, etc.), Machida City, Nakano Ward, etc.
YOSHIN-KAN has been based on the shape of International Shotokan. Currently, we are actively involved in the Shotokan kata and kumite of the All Japan Karate Federation and the Japan Karate Association, pursuing tradition and practical techniques. In addition, with the slogan "Contributing to the world through uniqueness,"we pursue personal growth and self-fulfillment by interacting with the world in our fields of expertise.
