KARATE-DO e GOSHIN-DO

Welcome to the Traditional Karate site:

The Teachings of a Master:

"Be dilligent and persevere.
Martial arts require hard training.
The rock is harder than water, but the water wears and washes away the hard rock.
It is only through patient training that we can reach our goals and see good results from our effort.
Regular training is essential.
The only way to make progress is to never, never stop practicing".
