Shihan Washington has compiled an instructional guide that demonstrates his knowledge of the art of Karate. His words show just how impactful his Karate journey has been to his life.
Without hesitation, the greatest gift I have been given through karate is perseverance. There are many other gifts as well, but this one has served me well and embodied my personal motto: Fall down seven, get up eight, “Nana korobi ya oki, is a Japanese proverb that tells us that no matter how many times we fall, we must get up one more time. Sometimes I want to stay down; it would be so much easier. But something deep inside drives me to stand once again. I have little doubt that practice of Karate fostered this attitude in me. The metaphor of regaining my feet, taking a fighting stance, and raising my arms up in defense is one I visualize during the most trying times of my life. Not only standing, but sinking my weight into the ground, tightening my body into its center, breathing a cleansing breath, and staring into the eyes of my foe. I feel strength right now just from writing the words. The true feeling is indescribable.
This is what I wish to pass on to others.
