VANCOUVER SEIYU KARATE
Sponsors
Seiyu Karate
Shihan Tats Nakamura founded the Vancouver Kyokushin Karate in 1992 after moving to Canada from his native country, Japan. The club has grown from its modest beginnings to become one of the most prominent Karate clubs in Vancouver. In 2017, after having trained in Kyokushin Karate for 34 years, Shihan Tats established his own style named Seiyu Karate. The word represents his own motto: Sei (Faithfulness) and Yu (Courage).
Vancouver Cup Karate Championships
The event began with a modest start in 2000. Each year it has seen great success and growth by pulling together more than 100 competitors from BC and Alberta and giving them the opportunity to gain experience and develop new friendships. We are excited to bring back the tournament this year after three years of waiting due to Covid-19.
Your Sponsorship is Important to Us
This is a great opportunity for Greater Vancouver businesses to sponsor the event, for it is guaranteed to create a positive and lasting impression on the audience. Most importantly, the event will benefit the community by teaching young people about the value of discipline, commitment, respect, and perseverance. Your business will position itself and be recognized by the community as a local company participating in events and activities.
