Episode 85. Golden Rule Karate & a Life in Isshinryu
The conversation
About Paul Kilduff.
Paul Kilduff sat down for Kumite Lifestyle. That conversation is episode 85, “Golden Rule Karate & a Life in Isshinryu”.
Paul owns Golden Rule Karate and Fitness in Oxford, a rural town in northwestern New Jersey. He opened it on June 1, 1997, in a strip mall, with a partner at the time.
The name comes from wanting to always treat people the way they want to be treated. He runs it as a full-time business, and he works to stay flexible with families, from putting contracts on hold for vacations to offering longer, lower-cost commitments.
Paul got to train with his own kids as they were growing up, and he talks about the community that tournaments like the Isshinryu Hall of Fame bring together.
