Vale Antonio Oliva Seba
1948 - 2024

I was deeply saddened to hear that Sensei Antonio Olivia Seba passed away on Monday, May 13.

Oliva Sensei was, without question, the best sport karate coach I have trained with, and was famous for his tactical drills to improve the possibility of winning in sport kumite. He came to Australia many times since 1985 and has influenced generations of fighters.

For me, his greatest asset was his wisdom. He was a very humble, kind and loving man as well.

His method of coaching will live on in every coach who seriously immersed themselves in his system of training.

He was truly unique and will be sorely missed.

- Phil Shihan
