Houkukan Karate Dojo is the dojo run by Kunio Kobayashi, the instructor of the Japan Karate Association.
When Kobayashi shihan is not available, the training is held by instructors who hold a Japan Karate Association certified instructor license and who have been appointed by him.
Members from all nationalities or children and adults all train together at the dojo toward their respective goals. We share hardship and joy as a family, encourage and support each other at the dojo.
Houkukan welcome visitors from both domestic and international branches of the Japan Karate Association. We have visitors from overseas almost every moth. If you are in Japan or nearby, please come visit "Houkukan".
We are all looking forward to having you and training with you.
When you visit Houkukan, you are required to purchase a visitor ticket for 10,000 yen per ticket. Cash only.
One visitor ticket entitles the holder to 5 practice sessions for adults and 6 for children.
