On 31st July, we pause to remember and honour our beloved Norman Robinson, Shihan on the first anniversary of his passing.

Although a year has gone by, his presence is still deeply felt throughout our organisation, dojos and in the hearts of all who had the privilege of training under him. Norman, Shihan was far more than an exceptional karateka —he was a mentor, a leader, and a friend whose unwavering dedication to the art of Shotokan Karate inspired generations of students.

His legacy lives on through the values he instilled in us: respect, humility, perseverance, discipline, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. Every bow, every kata, every training session, and every lesson passed on by his students carries a part of his spirit.

As the JKS Federation of South Africa, we remain committed to preserving the standards, traditions, and vision that Norman, Shihan worked so tirelessly to build. His influence will continue to guide us for many years to come.

Today we remember him with gratitude, respect, and admiration.

"The true legacy of a teacher is not measured by what they achieve themselves, but by the lives they inspire and the path they leave for others to follow."
