In 1975 I obtained my first degree (Sho Dan) Black Belt at the Kyokushinkai Kan Center of Karate in San Jose, Costa Rica, from Sensei Roberto McLean.
My family and myself currently train at the Kyokushin School of Karate of Pleasant Hill, California, owned and directed by Sensei Tyrone Wah, fourth degree Kyokushin Black Belt, and also led by Sensei Gary White, fifth (Go Dan) Kyokushin Black Belt. 
In this page you will find links to the Kyokushin School in Pleasant Hill School  and to the Costa Rica Kyokushin Web Page from where you can go to the rest of the Kyokushin around the world.
