Today, we honor the memory of Sosai Masutatsu Oyama, founder of Kyokushin Karate. His vision, strength, and relentless pursuit of perfection built more than a style — he built a way of life. As students and instructors, we carry the responsibility of preserving the spirit of Kyokushin: discipline, humility, perseverance, and constant self-improvement. Sosai taught us that true strength is not found in standing still, but in pushing forward — evolving without forgetting where we came from. At Eastside Kyokushin Karate, we remain committed to that ideal: to honor his legacy not just by repeating his techniques, but by living his spirit of growth, resilience, and courage in everything we do. 押忍 (Osu) (fb)
