Hi, I’m Henry Bellinger — the karate pilgrim who couldn’t stay away.

I sometimes write about karate and life in Japan. I hope you find some of it interesting!

I can be found training at the Honbu (Headquarters) Dojo of the Japan Karate Shoto Federation, or the venerable Mokuyokai dojo of Keio University. And anywhere else that new, enriching experiences await.

You can also connect with me on Facebook. See you around!
