Partial Follow up to ”Osu”

We received this great information about "Osu" from John-san in NY. "A little information on the word "osu". I have studied karate in New York for 8 years and osu is the way that karataka greet each other both in and out of the dojo." We will be looking into the orgin, so if anyone has any info, please keep it coming! Arigatou Gozaimasu! Thank you John-san Peter
