Foster’s long-deserved TYKI Dojo - Sears Town Mall promotion. He has graciously accepted the 3550 S. Washington Ave., rank of Ju dan (10th degree black belt). Titusville, FL For more information: Sensei Foster is one of the late Sensei Yamamoto’s senior students and his [email protected] first Yoshukai Instructor in the United States. The ranking members of Yoshukai Karate International are students of Sensei Foster and through him can trace our karate lineage back to O’Sensei, Dr. Tsuyoshi Chitose. January 1, 2018 Sensei Foster was a top tournament competitor in the 1960’s and 1970’s in Blackbelt Annual Dues Japan and the United States, earning the nickname “The Fighting Sensei.” May be paid using PayPal Black Belt Magazine called him “The Southern Giant”. Sensei Foster has http://www.yoshukai.org/links.html been involved in the teaching and promotion of Yoshukai Karate in the United States since 1965. He and his students spread Yoshukai Karate to Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and the Caribbean. Sensei Foster’s dedication to Yoshukai over the past six decades has January 13, 2018 furthered the art of Yoshukai Karate and has left an indelible mark in the st 1 Kyu/Dan Grade Testing annals of martial arts history. 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, Fee $50 Bamboo Dojo 2111 – 14th Ave. Vero Beach, FL For more information: [email protected] Yoshukai Karate International 2017 In Loving Memory of Elizabeth D. Moore January 4, 1952 – May 27, 2016 Last year, we were saddened by the loss of a dear and cherished friend. Sensei Beth Moore, known to most of us as “Beppy”, was born and raised in Staten Island, NY and graduated from St. Leo College with degrees in Special Education and Elementary Education. While attending college, she met her husband of 43 years, Sensei William T. Moore III and together, they raised two beautiful daughters, Ellen Elizabeth (“Ellie”) and Ann VanCleaf (“Annie”). Beth was a sixth degree black belt in Yoshukai Karate and one of the founding members of Yoshukai Karate International. She was a cherished friend, loving wife, devoted mother, and accomplished martial artist who was taken from us way too soon. She extended joy and kindness to everyone she met and will always be remembered as the women who lived her life with a shining smile no matter what. Mr. John Bosse –Rest Peacefully Dear Friend We are deeply saddened by the loss of another of our yudansha. Mr. John Bosse passed away on October 9, 2017 at his home in Holly Hill, Florida. Mr. Bosse was 46 years old. He previously worked for Homeland Security in Vermont. John has been around Yoshukai Karate for most of his life and began training at the Yoshukan Dojo in Ormond Beach, FL when he was 12 years old. John was a true patriot, a dear friend and he had a fighting spirit that was unmatched – we will miss you buddy! Mamoru Yamamoto Sensei July 10, 1938 – February 12, 2017 Mamoru Yamamoto began his training in Chito-ryu at the age of fifteen and quickly became one of Tsuyoshi Chitose’s top students. Yamamoto adopted new fighting techniques and traditional weapons from Okinawa into Chito-Ryu. In the early 1970's, Yamamoto left the Chito-kai federation to found his own style of karate under the name of Yoshukan (a.k.a., Yoshukai), which later became known as Yoshukai. During this early period, Yamamoto worked with Mas Oyama of Kyokushinkai Karate to develop new rules for full contact sparring. This led to the modernization of tournament fighting in both Japan and the U.S. Yamamoto was considered a tough fighter and top competitor in Japan and held the title of All-Japan Karate Open Tournament Champion from 1958 to 1960. In 1964, Mike Foster Sensei began training under Yamamoto Sensei and was subsequently named Director of the USA Yoshukai Karate Association. Mike Foster subsequently established the Yoshukai International Karate Association. Our condolences go out to Yamamoto Sensei's family, his students and the Yoshukai organization. 2 Yoshukai Karate 2017 Mr. Ricky Copeland, 7th Dan Sensei Copeland has been a member of Yoshukai Karate since 1980.

I’ve done countless had a particularly hard time standing in a line tournaments, tested 10 times, and finally got my and doing what I was told.

THE DEVELOPMENT AND CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MARTIAL ARTS EXPERIENCE IN NEW ZEALAND A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Social Science at Lincoln University by Diana Looser Lincoln University 2003 2 Abstract THE DEVELOPMENT AND CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MARTIAL ARTS EXPERIENCE IN NEW ZEALAND This thesis examines the martial arts in New Zealand. It takes three approaches. The first is socio­ historical, with a particular focus on the history and development of martial arts practice in New Zealand. The second is socio-cultural and is concerned with the characteristics of the people . practising the various martial arts. The third is motivational and explores the reasons why people become involved in martial arts training and why they continue. The theories of risk and the risk society, and popular or mass consumer culture are used to help explain, and provide a social context for understanding, people's motivations. In addition, the black belt is examined in terms of its symbolic nature and its role in motivating people to begin, and continue with, their training.
