About the Business

Karate, as we know it today, originated on the Ryukyu Archipelago, more commonly known as the Island of Okinawa, (Birthplace of Karate), Japan. The major sites were the villages of Naha, Shuri and Tomari.

The traditional Kata (forms) have been handed down from instructor to student. To quote Chibana Sensei, "Karate is teaching Kata (form) we have taken from forefathers without changing it at all." There are 15 traditional Katas and in Kobudo (Okinawan Art of Weaponry) there are 6 weapons with individual Katas for each weapon.
