– In Memoriam –

Sadaharu Kurobane, Shihan
1941-2024

On Friday, January 5th, 2024, we said goodbye to Sensei Kurobane. His teachings extended far beyond the dojo, emphasizing the importance of perseverance, integrity, and humility in all aspects of life. Sensei Kurobane’s legacy will forever live on in the hearts and minds of those he has taught, as we continue to carry his teachings forward, both inside and outside the dojo.

Our hearts are filled with immense gratitude for his 53 years of teaching us all what karatedo, way of life, truly means.

Our Remembrance

On behalf of Southern Utah Wado Kai Karate, we thank you Kurobane, Shihan. Thank you for your support, and for being the inspiration behind our dojo. We will continue to train, learn, and grow in your honor.
