while improving physical fitness.

| After having taught at a local Karate school for many years, Sensei Leger decided to open a Tsuruoka Karate School in January 2001. Sensei Leger's goal is to return to the source of Karate expertise and training in Canada. A close working relationship with O'Sensei Masami Tsuruoka ensures that the Oscar Leger School of Karate offers students the latest and most progressive Tsuruoka Karate techniques and principles available in Canada. The Oscar Leger School of Karate is the only Tsuruoka sanctioned karate school operating in Moncton, NB. |
