There are two reactions I usually get when I tell people that I practice Karate:
1. “Of course you do!”
2. “Why on earth would you do that?!”
But truthfully, for those who wonder where my boundless happiness comes from, I would simply say: talk to my Sensei and check him out! 🥋
Karate, for me, is a fountain of inspiration that never runs dry—a lifelong journey of learning, growth, discipline, and becoming a better version of myself.
And my new school is so much more than a martial arts school.
In the Taika Oyata Life Protecting Art, the goal is not to compete, win points, or prove that you are stronger than someone else. The purpose is to protect life—to safeguard our family, our friends, innocent bystanders, and even the aggressor—by stopping violence with the least possible harm.
That philosophy has changed the way I see martial arts.
When you improve yourself through this art, you are not simply becoming stronger for yourself. You are developing yourself so that you can give your best self back to your family, your community, and society.
To me, that is what makes Karate truly beautiful.
Your welcome 🙇♀️🥋☯️🌊
