Karate is a school that reflects the image of life

Gichin FUNAKOSHI
My Way of Life

Life is constantly marked by highs and lows, moments of success and victory, but also and victories, but also failures and disappointments.

We would always like the latter to disappear in favor of the former. but what would our existence be then? A a kind of "nirvana", where we bathe in ecstasy ecstasy, without worry or fear of any kind? No, in fact, beyond apparent bliss, everything would quickly sink boredom and dissatisfaction.

In fact, it's only the difficulties the difficulties we constantly encounter enable us to call on our moral resources, strengthen them, maintain our vigilance and even our survival instinct.

In this sense, Karate is a school in the image of life. life, when we experience suffering, exhaustion, defeat, discouragement. But training enables us to forge the necessary weapons, to give ourselves to give ourselves the tools for future precious victories. Victory over ourselves victory over others must always be kept in perspective artificial, precarious and fleeting.

Let's not the unattainable, but, for each of us, to make but, for each of us, to move forward together on the path to permanent improvement.
