The paperwork doesn’t lie.
In a world full of "masters" who attended a seminar in the 90s, the history books are clear. Hanshi Seiken Takamine isn't just a student of the legendary Taika Seiyu Oyata, he is one of the last living guardians of the complete system.
The proof is in the ink. Possessing both the Teaching Certificate with the Oyata family stamp AND the Shin Shu Ho is a level of notoriety that maybe three people on earth can claim today.
Hanshi was on the mat in the 1970s as Taika’s right-hand man. He didn't just watch the history happen, he lived it.
If you want sport karate, go anywhere else. If you want the source, you come to Miller Place.
Visit Takamine Karate Dojo to speak with Hanshi about his 40-year journey or book your first class for FREE.
