    ns2:researchNote "Takayoshi commenced Matsubayashi-ryu training under his father at age six. At his father's direction he went to the United States in the late 1960s at age 20, staying over 10 years and opening a dojo in Cincinnati, Ohio, and returned to Okinawa in 1979 to assist his father with the World Honbu Dojo. In 1991 his father retired and passed the leadership to him; in 1992 he formed the World Matsubayashi-ryu (Shorin-ryu) Karate-do Association (WMKA), and in 1997, after his father's death, took the position of second sōke. He was promoted to Hanshisei 10th dan in October 2008. He also served at times as a Naha City Councilman and a Criminal Investigator for the United States Marine Corps. The Blitz Magazine article (December 2012, interview during his Australia visit) confirms his birth in Naha in August 1945, karate from age six as the son of the founder (named a living intangible cultural asset by Japan), the Hanshisei 10th dan rank, over 10 years teaching in the Ohio region of the US, and the WMKA leadership, and records his explanation of the five fundamentals philosophy. The WMKA memorial page notes his last visit to Florida in 2011. The Kodokan Cummings dojo in Canberra (his student Reece Cummings) records time as a live-in uchi-deshi with him in Okinawa." ;
