A true karate legend

Rest in peace Sensei

My deepest condolence to Master Nishiyama's family and to the Shotokan world in general.  He was an insperation to any to all.  Master Nishiyama's book "Karate" was the reason I started my journey in Shotokan Karate over 30 years ago. Rest in peace.

Sincerely, Phil Felice

 I was training with Nishiyama Sensei for a long time and was very sad when I learned about his death. I meet him and treind for the last time in Paris in December 7-8 2007.

We hed a dinner together and had a long Interview with him. It is still hard to believe that he is not with us any longer. Please let me know if you'd like to know more about this Interview.

I am also a photographer and I have some nice photos of him. Some of his photos are on our website: www.muswellhillkarate.org.uk

I was teaching in Paris end of Januaru together with Sensei Marhomy raising money for his family. We are doung the same this week end (14-15) Feb. in London.

The first Karatebook I bought was Karate, the art of empty hand. I never trained with him, but his book was for me very inspiring.

His soul will rest in peace!Oshu
