is a prominent Japanese master of Shotokan karate who founded the Shotokan Karate of America (SKA) organization.〔(Shotokan Karate of America: Tsutomu Ohshima ) (2010). Retrieved on March 31, 2010.〕 He is the ''Shihan'' (Chief Instructor) of the SKA, and to this day holds the rank of 5th ''dan'' in karate, which was awarded to him by Gichin Funakoshi.〔 In 1957, he established the Caltech Karate Club—the first university karate club in the United States of America. ==Early life== Ohshima was born on August 6, 1930, in Japan.〔 By the age of five, he had already begun learning martial arts.〔 He studied sumo from the ages of 5–15, kendo from 8–15, and judo from 9–13.〔 Recalling an episode from his youth, Ohshima said, "One day I was going to Tokyo. This group was beating one young student because he was a quiet boy, but something he pushed with his elbow. And this was a ridiculous reason. But these guys were beating this young boy—same age as me, fifteen or sixteen. I got so mad. Mad, because person next to me said, 'Don't go, you get beat up.' I was ashamed of myself. I knew this was injustice. Why couldn't I put myself out there? I could be beaten up, but I could stand it. But I just sit there and overlook. I say to myself, 'Alas, how I am a coward guy.' I knew somebody was getting beaten up, but I couldn't help him. Therefore, when I was practicing karate, every time I asked myself, 'Are you ready to put yourself into something that you believe is justice?'" (p. 34).〔Sulak, T.
