JAPANESE KARATE KYOKUSHIN-KAN, INC.

About Shihan Fujiwara

 In 1993 Shihan Kenji Fujiwara opened his first karate school under the business name Japanese Karate Mushin.  The first school was located at 11 Berlin Road in Cromwell, Connecticut and was there until 1996 (three years).

 

  In 1996, Japanese Karate Mushin was relocated to the address 48 Willowbrook Road in Cromwell, Connecticut.  The school functioned at this location for seven years until 2003.  The business grew and a new location was required.

 

  In 2003, Japanese Karate Mushin moved to 37 Berlin Road in Cromwell, Connecticut.  At this point the school opened its doors to youth as well as adults.  Multiple classes were added to a six day a week schedule to accommodate the growing business.

 

  In 2010 Japanese Karate Mushin became a non-profit and has been doing business as Japanese Karate Kyokushin-Kan, Inc.  The change to non-profit signified a change in the way the school was taught, with a concentration in educating local youth in the practices of living their lives in the way of karate through discipline and respect for others.

 

  On January 1st, 2014 Japanese Karate Kyokushin-Kan, Inc. moved their school to 825-P Cromwell Avenue in Rocky Hill, Connecticut, with the goal of expanding their schools to more locations so they may educate more youth throughout the state of Connecticut under the Japanese Karate Kyokushin-Kan, Inc. name.
