The 3 tattoos are linked to my 25 plus years of karate training. One is also a nod to the 47 Ronin.

Enter For FreeI was at a tattoo expo and was looking for something simple that would represent my years of martial arts training. I found an artist that had several pieces already drawn. I pick something simple but I also purchased the entire sheet of martial arts images he drew.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?That I am dedicated to my karate training. That it is who I am. Every piece links to my 25 plus years of hard work. The Japanese kanji in my tattoos spell out the style of karate that I do, Shotokan Karate-Do. The samurai tattoo is surrounded by cherry blossoms. 4 flowers representing the number 40 and 7 floating pedals. A masterless samurai is a Ronin. The 47 Ronin is a amazing historical account of loyalty.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would pay off some bills and plan a trip to the International Karate Daigaku World Cup in 2027 in Jamaica.
