Sensei Tatsuo Shimabuku, Founder of Isshinryu Karate

 
A recently unearthed photo of my Sensei Tatsuo Shimabuku at the Agena, Okinawa dojo where he taught me and other Marines the way of Isshinryu (One HeartMind)

    Fantastic photo! It's always great to see Tatsuo Sensei. His work, and the work of the marines stationed on Okinawa, have had immeasurable influence on karate in America.

    Hi George. I was trying to find a way to send you a message, but commenting on one of your posts is the best I can figure out. I'm second gen from Tatsuo Shimabuku, he trained my sensei, Sensei Hovey. I'm in Flagstaff also and was searching for Isshinryu in the area and stumbled across your post. Would love to connect. Interested? Shoot me a text or give a call.
