The heart of our karate is real fighting.There can be no proof without real fighting. Without proof there is no trust. Without trust there is no respect. This is a definition in the world of martial arts.

The path of Martial Arts begins and ends with courtesy. So be genuinely polite on every occasion.

Behind each triumph are new peaks to be conquered.

Studying the martial Way is like climbing a cliff: keep going forward without rest. Resting is not permissible because it causes recessions to old adages of achievement. Persevering day in, day out improves techniques, but resting one day causes lapses. This must be prevented.

If someone asked me what a human being ought to devote the maximum of his life to, I would answer: training. Train more than you sleep.

Karate is Budo and if Budo is removed from Karate it is nothing more than sport karate, show karate, or even fashion karate-the idea of training merely to be fashionable.

A human life gains lustre and strength only when it is polished and tempered.
