Master Teruyuki Okazaki was born June 22, 1931 to a samurai family, in Fukuoka, Japan. After studying aikido, judo and kendo, he began karate training in 1947, joining the Japan Karate Association , where he studied under both Master Gichin Funakoshi and Master Masatoshi Nakayama.
In 1953, Master Okazaki graduated from Takushoku University in Tokyo with a BA in Political Economics. That same year, he graduated from the JKA instructor training program. He later taught at Boei University , Takushoku University and Tokyo Toritsu University. He also instructed the instructor trainees for the JKA Headquarters. Master Okazaki was sent to the United States by JKA Chief Instructor Masatoshi Nakayama in 1961 to help share Shotokan karate with all people throughout the world. He established a dojo in Philadelphia and founded the East Coast Shotokan Karate Association in 1963. In 1977 he founded the International Shotokan Karate Federation , which is now one of the largest karate organizations in the world. The ISKF, of which Master Okazaki remains Chairman and Chief Instructor, has approximately seventy thousand members in over sixty countries.
Master Okazaki received the rank of 10th dan in October of 2007. He has been a member of the faculty at Philadelphia’s Temple University since 1970, and is also an instructor at the University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University, West Chester University and Thomas Jefferson University. In June of 2007, the ISKF became independent of the JKA/WF, which allows for the ISKF to spread to even more countries outside of the Pan-America region.
Master Okazaki conducts seminars and clinics, provides training sessions and administers ranking examinations all across the United States, as well as internationally. He is the author of two books, The Textbook of Modern Karate and Perfection of Character – Guiding Principles For The Martial Arts & Everyday Life.
