Oyama Karate Juku-USA

Dojo Kun of Oyama Karate Juku

Note: We have changed the way we recite the Dojo Kun in our dojo, so that the

creed reflects our dojo and the many diversities within our dojo. Adhering too and

not taking anything away from the true meaning of the Kyokushin Way or the

Dojo Kun of our founder of Kyokushin; Sosai Masutatsu Oyama.

Dojo Kun

We will train our hearts & bodies for a firm and unshaken spirit!

We will pursue the true meaning of the Martial Way, so that our senses may be alert!

With true vigor, we will seek to cultivate a spirit of self-denial!

We will be courteous, respect our superiors, and refrain from violence!

We will look upwards to wisdom and strength, not seeking meaningless desires!

We will follow our moral principles and never forget the true virtue of humility!

All of our lives, through the discipline of Budo Karate, we will seek to fulfill the true meaning of

the Kyokushin Way!

The 6 Principles of a Shodan

As a dedicated student of the Martial Arts, I will live by the Principals of Black Belt;

Discipline - Respect - Courtesy - Honesty - Self Control - Perseverance

Please take the time to memorize our Dojo Kun and the Principals of Black Belt. Martial Artists are people who hold themselves to a higher standard. This is the major difference between Martial Arts and any other activity you or your family may ever become involved in. The Martial Arts are truly a way of life.
