  • Tsutomo Ohshima
    Meeting the Masters: Tsutomo Ohshima Over my 50+ years of training in budo, I have been lucky enough to meet or train under many notable martial artists. This year, I want to share my impressions, some deep set, some fleeting, about the men and women I met on the way. My Shotokan sensei was looking for further training and weighing the virtues of the JKA (Japan Karate Association) against those of Tsutomo Ohshima’s SKA (Shotokan Karate of America). Ohshima Sensei was the founder of Shotokan in the USA and had trained under Gichin Funakoshi as a university student whenever Funakoshi visited his dojo. His Shotokan was different from the JKA’s, which had been strongly influenced by the developments of Gichin’s son Yoshitaka “Gigo” Funakoshi. Ohshima Sensei (b. 1930) impressed me in several small ways. First, as I came out of the locker room, I saw him practicing in front of a mirror. Here was the most senior Shotokan person in the country practicing not a kata, not a portion of a kata, not a basic kick or hand movement, but a simple front stance. Second, during our class, Ohshima talked a lot about ki, something that was very much in vogue during the 1970s. He said that big guys like my sensei would probably never need to develop internal power, but smaller guys would profit from cultivating it. He did not explain it, but demonstrated a simple double lapel release. He asked Elliott, the assistant instructor, to grab both of his lapels as strongly as he could.

  • History of Shotokan Karate
    History of Shotokan Karate An accurate, well documented, history of Shotokan karate is difficult to establish due to the decimation of Okinawa during World War II. Most of the documented history we have today has been passed down through word of mouth or substantiated using secondary documentation. However, there are four common theories addressing the development of karate, they are: • Karate developed from unarmed fighting traditions developed by the Okinawan peasantry. • Karate was primarily influenced by the Chinese fighting arts. • Due to the ban of weapons instituted in 1507 by the Okinawan king Sho Shin, wealthy Okinawans had a need to defend their property. • Karate was developed by Okinawan law enforcement and security personnel after Satsuma invaded Okinawa in 1609 and banned all weapons. It’s most likely, however, that each of the above influenced the development of Shotokan karate. Early development can be traced back to Chinese fighting arts. The most popular being Gonfu (kunfu). Of all the Gonfu styles that may have influenced our Shotokan karate, it seems that White Crane gonfu, developed by Fang Qiniang, a young girl who grew up in Yongchun, China, appears to have had the greatest influence on the development of modern day karate. Master Funakoshi believed that karate developed as an indigenous Okinawan martial art. Satunushi “Tode” Sakugawa was the first teacher in the Shotokan lineage who made specific contributions to the karate we study today. Though his techniques were primarily based on White Crane Chuan Fa, Sakugawa is credited with developing Kusanku kata, the basis for our Kankudai and Kankusho katas, the first set of dojo kun, and the concept of “hikite”, opposite or pullback hand.

Standing Posture: Chudan no kamae Eye: Maintain eye contact with partner Strike: Strike with Monouchi within ¼” of target, squeezing the grip with one breath. Foot movement: Begin Okuriashi and strike with Suriashi Voice: Kakarite calls out intended target loudly: Kote Men Do Tsuki. Zanshin: After each strike, Kakarite would take a small step back and zanshin strongly from Chudan no Kamae position. Kihon kata Kihon 1: Men, Kote, Do, Tsuki Motodachi: Opens kissaki slightly to the right. Kakarite: Steps in to hit Men. Takes one small step back to zanshin, and another step to return to the original position. Motodachi: Raises kissaki slightly up. Kakarite: Steps in to hit Kote.
