Shotokan Karate of America
Shotokan Karate of America (SKA) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to teach traditional karate-do in the United States. It was founded and is still led by Tsutomu Ohshima, a direct student of Gichin Funakoshi, the father of Shotokan karate.〔Evans, J. K. (1988): "The battle for Olympic Karate recognition: WUKO vs. IAKF." ''Black Belt'', 26(2):54–58.〕 Today, Ohshima is recognized as the ''shihan'' (chief instructor) of many other SKA-affiliated Shotokan organizations worldwide. SKA's national headquarters are in Los Angeles.
==History==
Ohshima (1930-) began practicing karate at the Waseda University club in 1948, after having already trained in sumo, kendo, and judo during his childhood. At the time, Funakoshi, in his early 80s, was still teaching at Waseda and other universities. Ohshima's leading seniors at Waseda included Hiroshi Noguchi and Shigeru Egami, and he became captain of the club in 1952.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Tsutomu Ohshima )〕 In 1955, he moved to University of Southern California to continue his studies, and led his first U.S. practice soon afterwards. In 1957, he started the first university karate club in the United States, at Caltech, and in 1959 founded the Southern California Karate Association. As more dojos were opened in California and throughout the U.S., the organization was renamed to Shotokan Karate of America in 1969.
