Karate
We practice a full-contact style of Japanese karate founded by Soshu Shigeru Oyama and Saiko Shihan Yasuhiko Oyama. We have been in the Bay Area since 2001, with dojos in San Francisco and San Mateo. Our performance at the festival will include kata (forms), kihon (basics), kumite (fighting), as well as breaking demonstrations of wood, baseball bats, and ice. We hope to inspire others to keep pushing themselves to do more and be more. We are all stronger than we realize.
