Ben Otake
Sensei Ben Otake's extensive experience with martial arts stems back to the early 50's beginning with judo. From there he studied karate and kempo and was one of Ed Parker's first students. He then moved on to study with Tak Kubota of the International Karate Association, earning the rank of 6th Dan; some 20 plus years ago. Otake sensei taught the Gosoku Ryu system (IKA) in Puerto Rico for 1967 to 1972. During his time as an instructor for the IKA he taught Pan American champion Manuel Gonzales and world class champion Tony Tulleners (to name just two). Today, Otake sensei teaches martial arts the way he feels it was taught originally - for self-preservation rather than trophies.
