Representative name: Takahiro Terashima.
Born in March 1960.
He currently lives in Fukuoka City, Japan.
In April 1983, he graduated from Okayama University, Department of Mathematics.
I have studied karate since I was in the first year of high school.
In April 1979, he became a disciple of the International Karatedo
Federation Kyokushin Kaikan Ashihara Dojo.
Since then, he has studied practical karate with many great karate artists representing
Japan at the Kyokushin Kaikan Ashihara Dojo Okayama branch and
the Osaka branch of Hideyuki Ashihara.
After graduating from university, he spread Ashihara karate mainly to
Fukuoka and northern Kumamoto as the leader of Ashihara karate.
In his mid-thirties, he mastered the highest rank of 4th dan at that time.
There are countless disciples who are attracted to their original and outstanding skills and philosophy.
After the death of Hideyuki Ashihara, in February 2012,
he became independent of the Ashihara Kaikan of the New International Karatedo
Federation and established the International Karatedo Shushin Kaikan.
Currently, he is 62 years old, but he has no choice but to teach his disciples
as a representative of Karatedo Hanshi 6th Dan and
International Karatedo Federation Shushin Kaikan.
Today, it is said that Japanese martial arts lovers have
the most karatedo.
To be honest, I am happy that karatedo was adopted for the official competition event
of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
I hope that Japanese karate will be appreciated and spread all over the world on the occasion of the Tokyo Olympics.
Needless to say, this is also the evolution and development of karate.
However, from another point of view, I think that "the art of protecting yourself" itself degenerates when it is fundamentally detected of "bujutsu" in a way.
Kendo, judo, and aikido are the same as karate, and if you go back, it is a place to train the "do" of "bu" which is the most important beauty of "wa" which is the origin of the Japanese heart.
I hope that everyone, from children to the elderly, has goals, trains with peace of mind, and learn how to increase the value of life and protect themselves.
Reviewing sports karate, originally, martial arts must be a practical fighting technique to protect yourself.
In February 2012, the International Karatedo Shushin Kaikan was established to review karate as a traditional Japanese martial arts culture that has been handed down since ancient times.
In 2021, it will become a general incorporated association (non-profit corporation).
Joined the Fukuoka City Sports Association and the sports club.
There are many strong fighters in the world.
Also, it is not easy to control or defeat people who are superior to their physique and physical strength.
However, people are neither gods nor monsters. Therefore, there is no need to be more afraid than necessary.
No matter how strong a fighter is, as long as he is human, he always has weaknesses.
There are advantages and disadvantages depending on various situations, such as fighting techniques that are advantageous for one-on-one battles,
fighting techniques that are advantageous to many people, fighting techniques
that are advantageous for those who wear strong clothes, and fighting techniques
that are advantageous to those who are not wearing clothes.
Strong fighters are based on scientific evidence in the framework
of "combat technology" It's just excellent at making effective use of "excellent mental strength" and "excellent fighting skills".
As long as we are human, no one is a human who exceeds the limits of human motor physiology.
It doesn't exist. Various professional athletes are competing mentally and physically
as close to human limits as possible.
If that's the case, by scientifically analyzing the efficacy and risks of the
elements that make up fighting techniques in various situations that are expected
to be encountered, minimizing the risk of fighting techniques, and making the most
of the effectiveness at the same time.
Even in situations where people who compete
with physical strength or fight against a large number of people, it is not impossible
to "protect yourself safely and control your opponent".
At the Karate Dojo of Shushin Kaikan, we constantly thoroughly train your fighting skills
to protect yourself and control your opponent.
In the karate learning stage, there are many important factors such as punching,
kicking, receiving, mitt training, and combination training such as general full
contact sparring.
Even if it's just a mitt training, there are various lesson methods.
It is important not only to "punch, kick, receive", but also to effectively use
the mitt according to the purpose of the training.
The same applies to training such as sparring.
At Shushin Kaikan Karatedo, based on "bodywork, step work, counter attack" in order not to be caught by the opponent, we constantly train foul techniques that are considered dangerous in ordinary martial arts so that they can be used anytime and in any scene.
In order to actually protect your life, it is important to train on a daily basis so that you can actively use dangerous techniques.
Improving these training methods is the basis for increasing the sharpness of "aggressive and defensive integration technology that integrates attacks and defenses."
In actual fighting, it is almost impossible to protect yourself with just a combination of hitting techniques.
In addition, it is out of the question to immediately go grab the opponent, and if you stretch your legs, you put your body defenselessly at the distance where the punch/kick hits your face and crotch. In addition, suddenly, hitting the other person's face is suicide.
Certainly, a person's face is one of the main weaknesses of the human body, but if you are too conscious of hitting or kicking the face, you will forget important things.
The "technique" of karate is more delicate.
A collection of delicate "technology" creates a large "destructive power".
"Always move softly, there is sharpness in the softness."
This is not just a superstition.
I'm sure it's a scientific evidence-based fact for me, who has been pursuing karate for nearly 50 years.
international karatedo Shushin Kaikan is an educational place to
nurture intelligence and courage that respects each other
from young people to working adults while training karatedo
and contributing to world peace against the backdrop
of "Japanese heart and culture".
For children and young people, through karate training,
education promotes harmonious improvement of "communication skills", "courteousness and attentiveness", "compassion and
courage", "self-expression and trust", that is, comprehensive human abilities
"mind, skills, body" It's a place to grow.
On the other hand, it is also a place for working adults to calm
their minds down, sometimes forget their work, and refresh
their minds and bodies while moving their bodies, and at the same time,
it is also a place to nurture the improvement
of "self-development ability" which is indispensable even
in the workplace where each person is active. In addition, it is also a place
to explore "better way of life", "more fulfilling way of life" and "more human way of life".
There is no "perfect person" in this world.
As long as people live a social life as a person, it's natural in a way.
People are on a variety of different paths, including the environment,
the history of growth, and the historical background.
However, your own way of life is to build it yourself.
In addition, the meaning of "happiness" and the idea
of "pursuing happiness" vary from person to person.
However, there is one thing that must be cherished and protected all the time.
It is "human life and dignity." Without it, we can't talk about people's happiness.
To protect people's lives and dignity.
That is the path of those who aspire to martial arts.
What is the ideal appearance of karate for nearly 50 years?
What is the "skill" of karate? What is the scientific basis?
Based on the "heart" and "training method" of various professional athletes, we tried to analyze and elucidate "techniques and mind". Then, I arrived at the "skills and hearts" of the current Shushin Kaikan Karatedo.
So, what is the difference between Shushin Kaikan karate and full contact karate in other dojos? However, the most clearly different thing is that the balance of the other person's center of gravity is that it is most important to balance the other person's center of gravity efficiently and break it in an instant.
So to speak, it was research and training of "techniques" specialized in actual battles to protect myself. In addition, it is also a "place to learn people's way of life together" to train and develop personality in the process.
It is characterized by establishing a training schedule where everyone can safely learn complete foul play and dangerous "techniques".
1. Counterattack from the stream (first model)
2. Counterattack while collapsing (type of collapse)
3. Counterattack while throwing (ball type)
This is to master counterattack technology that efficiently integrates attacks and defenses.
We at Shushin Kaikan Karatedo will do our best to practice with martial arts enthusiasts from all over the world.
