A young Mas Oyama training in the outdoorsFrom the very beginning when Sosai Masutatsu Oyama took refuge on Mount Minobu in Japan, where Miyamoto Musashi had developed his style of sword fighting, outdoor training has been a tradition in Kyokushin karate. 

There is something special about training under the sky with earth beneath your feet.  Summer karate camp is the setting for many of my favorite memories.  If you’d like to challenge yourself and create your own cherished memories, come join us for a rewarding experience in the Catskill Mountains of New York.
