Learning and Connecting Through Events
The study of Budo does not end with regular training in the dojo.
Training with practitioners from other dojos,
testing one’s skills in competition,
learning new knowledge and techniques from instructors,
meeting martial artists from Japan and other countries,
and engaging with local communities and society
can all provide valuable opportunities for deeper learning.
While respecting the independence and traditions
of each affiliated organization and dojo,
IBMA Kyokushin Kai seeks to expand the possibilities
of karate and Budo through research, education,
practice, and exchange with people and organizations
in Japan and throughout the world.
Learn through Budo, connect through exchange, and carry those experiences into the future.
IBMA Kyokushin Kai regards events and exchange activities
as valuable opportunities to apply the lessons of Budo
to life and society.
