Kyoshi Krystofik began his karate journey in 1970 under Shihan Ralph Chirico, Isshin Shorin Ji Ryu Okinawa Te, attaining the rank of 3rd dan.  In 1992 he began studying under Taika Seiyu Oyata, eventually reaching the rank of 7th Dan in Oyata Shin Shu Ho Ryu.  After Taika Oyata’s passing, Kyoshi Krystofik began studying with Hanshi Lindquist because of his vast knowledge and dedication to preserving and passing on Taika’s art, and because his personality embodied that of the ancient bushi: kind, humble and generous.  He was promoted to 8th Dan by Hanshi Lindquist in July 2019.
