Our dear Sensei Robert Fusaro passed away this June 29th 2019. To his family, students, friends and the WTKF countries all our condolences.
Rest in Peace
All our respect to this wonderful person and great karateka.
Fusaro Sensei is one of the highest ranking non-Japanese black belts in the world at 9th Dan (Degree).
He began his study of Karate-do in 1955 while stationed in Japan during the Korean War. On his first visit to a Karate class at the Japan Karate Association honbu dojo (headquarters), he met Mr. Takagi and the understanding Mr. Ito, who personally sponsored Fusaro during his extended stay in Japan after being discharged. He joined the dojo and participated in the first Japan Karate Association (JKA) tournament held in 1957. While rising through the ranks, he received instruction from members of the famed JKA Instructors' School including Senseis Kanazawa, Mikami, Mori, Kisaka, and Enoeda, among others.
