Omaha Sister Cities Association

Students from the Kenyunjuku Karate school in Shizuoka, our sister city, are traveling to Omaha in late March to do a few events with the B&B Gym and YMCA in North Omaha, which is the gym owned by current world champion, Terrance “Bud” Crawford.
 

The traditional Japanese martial arts group from Shizuoka will do cross training with the gym and mostly focus on its minority youth membership who will gain knowledge of the history of Karate and its influence on Japanese culture.  In return, the Karate students will learn about American boxing and B&B’s outreach to the community.  On March 23, OSCA plans to have a demonstration event at the YMCA in North Omaha, Butler Gast, which will be open to the public. Time will be announced at a later date. Please go to the Omaha Sister Cities Facebook page for more up-to-date information.
