He is
known for his
progressive style of
karate, and it is not
few karate
highlights to be found
around the net.
this is
Norichika `s 4
world championship,
and everyone knows
he won the 6th
in 1996.
Since then, one can conclude that it
has become even
harder to reach
the top. But if you look
Norichika Sensei's
achievements in the
world tournament
relation, we see
him always
to be reckoned with in the
top echelon. In
four world
tournaments, he has not
been lower
than among the
top 16. This
includes two 7th place,
one among the 16 and
a 1st place.
Those who have
obstructed Norichika
advancement is
not just anyone, Roman
Nesterenko, Valeri
Dmitrov and
Toru Okamoto

Tsukamoto Sensei at his grading test 2010. Competing at this level that he

mind when we think of Tsukamoto Sensei, doing basic. For more from his test knee the picture! |
