A North Attleboro karate dojo celebrated its 50th anniversary with guests from Okinawa, Japan.
From July 24 to 29, the dojo hosted a “master camp” for 80 academically strong students from across the United States,
all of whom already hold the prestigious 7th, 8th, and 9th degree black belts.
Four Japanese karate masters – Tsutomu Nakahodo, president emeritus of Okikukai, Hiroaki Yamashiro, a ninth-degree black belt, Tatsuhide Miyazato,
a seventh-degree black belt, and Atsushi Hamada, a sixth-degree black belt – taught the students in morning and evening sessions

Physical and Mental Health through Karate

The masters spoke about karate, saying that it can be practiced alone or with others,
and that it can help people improve their skills and become physically and mentally healthier, even as they age.

World Karate Federation president hopes to bring the sport back to the Olympics

The World Karate Federation president said he would like to see karate reinstated as a medal sport in the Olympics,
just as it was in the Tokyo Games. He was in Manila for a brief visit to celebrate the 22nd Asia Kadetsu,
Jr. at the PhilSport Arena. He told the International Olympic Committee in an interview at the time that it is important to make it known that it is wrong to exclude karate from the Olympics.
