108 Tekki Shodans
Now A Global Event We may not be able to all get together in one location but we can all come together in mind, body and spirit. If you can't come to our event, then please host your own. Host the gathering of bringing together Karatekas, organize a "108 Tekki Shodans" location. On the first day of the year we will all be doing the same thing. 108 Tekki Shodans to ring in the New Year. The easiest and best day to get the world TOGETHER. Our bodies will all be training the exact same thing. Our minds will be thinking the exact same thoughts. For days after, our bodies will all feel the exact same thing. We will be of "One Mind" united. The effects and benefits will last forever. We can even be of different affiliations or of non at all. You don't even need to belong to a dojo, you can participate in the comfort of your home. Karatekas from around the world together, all at once

Chinzo Machida It's Time for Real Change! It's Time to Get things Going! It's Time to Make Things Happen. If not now then when? Change - To do something different to get a better result. To keep the things that do work. To break from old bad habits (our comfort zone). To break free and accept our next challenges. The world has changed. We must adapt to the present and the evolving future environment. We must adapt and work within nature's changes
