◆空手の精神、逆境を制す
母の友人が空手道場を開くことがきっかけで、空手道の門を叩いたのは、5歳でした。最初はただ楽しむために始めたのですが、今では、空手道が中心の生活です。

小学校時代、空手を単なる趣味として楽しんでいました。しかし、中学に進学すると、勝つための情熱が芽生え、本格的に空手に打ち込むことを決意しました。自分の目標に向かって努力するために、道場を変え、道場以外でも、個人的な練習に励むようになりました。そして、高校に進学した際には、さらにアグレッシブになりました。

高校では、指導者が常にそばにいるわけではない環境で、自分自身の戦い、そして、自己成長に責任を持つことが求められました。この期間がターニングポイントでした。自分の目標に向かって自己トレーニングを計画し、県内外の先生の元へ出稽古に行ったりと、主体的に取り組むことが必要でした。

その中で、怪我に苦しんだ時期もありました。高校2年生の時、腰椎分離症を発症し、一時はドクターストップがかかるほどの状況でした。しかし、逆境や怪我に直面しても、決して諦めず、自己トレーニングを通じて回復し、復活後、大会で入賞を収めました。

空手道の魅力は、体力や筋力の向上だけでなく、精神面を鍛え、礼儀や根気強さを身につける機会を提供してくれることです。特に、大会や練習試合を通じて、全国各地から友達を得ることができ、新たな視野を開くことができました。

The spirit of karate, conquering adversity. He was 5 years old when his mother's friend opened a karate dojo, and he was introduced to karate at the age of 5. At first he started doing it just for fun, but now his life revolves around karate.

When he was in elementary school, He enjoyed karate just as a hobby. However, when he entered junior high school, he developed a passion for winning and decided to dedicate himself to karate. In order to work toward his goals, he changed dojos and began to practice privately outside of the dojo. Then, when he entered high school, he became even more aggressive.

In high school, he was required to take responsibility for his own battles and personal growth in an environment where a mentor was not always by his side. This period was a turning point. he had to take the initiative in planning his own training to achieve his goals and going to practice with teachers both inside and outside of the prefecture.

There was also a time when he struggled with injuries. When he was in his second year of high school, he developed lumbar spondylolysis, and at one point his condition was so severe that he had to be stopped by a doctor. However, even in the face of adversity and injury, he never gave up, recovered through self-training, and after his comeback, won a prize in a competition.

The appeal of karate is that it not only improves physical strength and muscular strength, but also provides an opportunity to train mentally and learn manners and perseverance. In particular, through tournaments and practice games, he was able to make friends from all over the country and open up new horizons



◆心を鍛え、生徒の心も強く
高校では、怪我に苦しんだ時期もあり、成績が思うようにいかず、悔しさから、上を目指すために、空手道の強い大学へ進学することを決意しました。現在は限られた時間を最大限に活用し、質の高い稽古に励んでいます。新たなチャレンジとして、空手道の指導員として、今まで学んできたことを情熱とともに、ぶつけたいと思います。

そして、選手を目指す人には、空手を楽しむだけでなく、勝つために努力し、自己成長を追求する姿勢を見せながら、ともに成長ができたらと思っております。

◆Train your mind and make your students' hearts stronger
In high school, there was a time when he suffered from an injury and his grades weren't as good as he had hoped, so out of frustration, he decided to go to a university with a strong karate school in order to aim for the top. Currently, he is making the most of his limited time and working hard on high-quality training. As a new challenge, He would like to share what he have learned so far with his passion as a karate instructor.

For those who aspire to become athletes, he hopes that we can not only enjoy karate, but also grow together by working hard to win and showing an attitude of pursuing self-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.
