Mission Statement

The mission of the Ichikawa-Ha Gojuryu International Karatedo Sosui Kai is to propagate the art of Orthodox Gojuryu in America and around the world.
The method to accomplish this goal is through passing on the kata, techniques, and the life philosophy of the late Grand Master Ichikawa Sosui Sensei. We are dedicated to developing the maximum potential of students through diligent training of the body, mind and spirit.
We strive to share the true history of Gojuryu Karate for all generations and to work with our brothers and sisters around the world in training, researching, and teaching the ideals of Ichikawa Sensei's Budo.
