  • Grading Syllabus Information
    GRADING CRITERIA Gradings are designed to asses your ability and test your character. Notification of a grading is not an indication that the student is ready for grading just advising that the minimum required period and amount of compulsory classes has been or likely to be acquired by the grading date. Students not quite ready will be advised to forego the grading until such a time as they are considered ready, grading is strictly at the instructors discretion. Students looking for short cuts to belts are advised that they are at the wrong club. If you’re looking for quality tuition leading to a quality black belt you are at the right club and you will know this. Grading examinations are held every three months for students. In order to pass a grading the student must, not only demonstrate knowledge of the required techniques, but have an excellent attendance and disciplinary record. Students under the age of 8 are not required to perform Kata at their grading Gradings take place on a weekend at which students are required to bring the correct uniform, protective equipment, valid licence, coarse card and lesson stamp card and any other additional items as instructed by Sensei. Where possible a panel of examiners will conduct the examination. The criteria for belt promotion are not only how a student performs certain Karate techniques, but also their mental approach, focus and attitude are taken into consideration. The first few grading tests are not that difficult, however as a student progresses, grading demands increase and they will need to devote more time to their Karate path.

  • Ash's Okinawan Karate
    ASH’S OKINAWAN KARATE LOCATION: 610 Professional Drive, Suite 1, Bozeman, Montana 59718 PHONE: 406-994-9194 EMAIL: [email protected] WEBSITE: www.ashsokinawankarate.com INSTRUCTORS: Brian Ash – Roku dan (6th degree Black Belt) Lisa Ash – Yon dan (4th degree Black Belt) Kaitlyn Ash – San dan (3rd degree Black Belt) Karate is an individual endeavor. Each person is taught and advanced according to his/her own ability. Initially, you will learn a basic foundation of karate techniques on which to build. Fundamentals of actual street and sport karate are later incorporated into your training as well as the Isshinryu kata. All classes include stretching and calisthenics. To be effective in karate, you must be in optimum shape. This book lists the minimal testing criteria for each belt level. Your sensei will decide when you are ready for testing, even if you have met the listed criteria. The rank criteria are simply a guide for the student. Practice is very important to prepare yourself for learning and advancement. To be a true black belt, you must not rush through the kyu ranks. Take advantage of that time to practice and improve all techniques and kata. We can never stop learning or improving ourselves. The secret of martial arts success is practice. Like uniforms are required during class representing tradition and equality in students. The main objective of Isshinryu is the perfection of oneself through both physical and mental development. Ash’s Karate combines teaching Isshinryu karate with a well- rounded exercise program. MISSION STATEMENT: To instill confidence, courtesy, and respect while building mental and physical strength, self discipline, balance, focus, endurance and perseverance in students so that they may empower themselves to overcome physical and mental obstacles, build character and unify mind, body and spirit.

  • Black Belt History and Terminology STUDY GUIDE for Black Belt Testing
    UECHIRYU BUTOKUKAITM Black Belt History and Terminology STUDY GUIDE For Black Belt Testing A Brief History of Uechiryu Karate-Do Uechiryu is purportedly based on three animals: The Tiger, Crane and Dragon The history of Uechiryu (Pronounced Way-Chee -Roo), began in Okinawa on May 5, 1877, with the birth of the founder: Kanbun Uechi. Kanbun was the oldest son of Samurai descendants Kantoku and Tsura Uechi. In 1897, Kanbun left Okinawa for China to avoid a Japanese Military conscription. He arrived in Fuchow City, Fukien Province and began his martial arts training. For the next ten years, he studied under the guidance of a Chinese Monk we know as Shushiwa. In 1907, Shushiwa encouraged Kanbun to open his own school. He eventually did in Nansoe, a day’s journey from Fuchow. Kanbun was credited with being the first Okinawan to operate a school in China. The school ran successfully for three years, then one of his students killed a neighbor in self-defense in a dispute over an irrigation matter. The incident hurt Kanbun to the point that he closed his school and returned to Okinawa. There he married, settled down as a farmer and vowed never to teach again. On June 26th, 1911, his first son Kanei Uechi was born. In 1924 Kanbun Uechi, along with many other Okinawans, left his home and went to Japan for stable employment. He arrived in Wakayama and worked as a janitor. It was here that he met a younger Okinawan Ryuyu Tomoyose. It was through this friendship that Kanbun agreed to begin teaching in a limited capacity.

    Australian Academy of Martial Arts Pty. Ltd. 0491 139 027 www.aama.com.au [email protected] TERMINOLOGY AND GREETINGS FOR WHITE AND GOLD BELTS All sports and cultural pursuits have their various and sometimes peculiar terminology that must be understood by their practitioners to enable them to participate in and appreciate that sport or cultural pursuit, with the greatest of satisfaction. With reference to Karate-Do, the International body controlling Karate, The World Karate Federation (W.K.F) has adopted Japanese terminology for officiating in all International Karate-Do Championships and Tournaments. Therefore, to communicate in a common tongue with International Karate Players, it is necessary to be familiar with and versed in a few relevant Japanese terms. Please note that the only Japanese terms taught are those necessary to assist us in fulfilling the above mentioned objectives and that it is not compulsory or necessary to learn conversational Japanese. A Beginner student of Karate-Do with only little but regular attention to these terms over a short period of time will quickly become confident and proficient in their use. Instructors will assist to this end with the pronunciation of terms each lesson. The following phonetic pronunciation reference list is to assist you in your endeavours and reinforce your class instruction. ______________________________________________________________ OFFICIALS Shihan (She-harn) Chief Instructor Sensei (Sen - say) Teacher (Instructor that bears the grading of 4th Dan and above) Sempai (Sem -pie) Senior member of the Club and refers generally to all Black Belts 1 GREETINGS CEREMONY Student Response Commencement of Class Command Shihan Ni Rei (She-harn-knee ray) (Shihan/Sensei/Sempai) O-negai shimasu Sensei Ni Rei (Sen-say-knee ray) (Oh-neh-guy She-muss) Sempai Ni Rei (Sem-pie-knee ray) Otagai Ni Rei (Oh-tah-guy-knee ray) (lit.

  • Development of a Punch-O-Meter for Sport Karate Training
    electronics Article Development of a Punch-O-Meter for Sport Karate Training Jay Venkatraman, Rayyan Manwar and Kamran (Mohammad) Avanaki * Department of Biomedical Engineering, Wayne State University, Detroit, MI 48201, USA * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-313-577-0703 Received: 30 May 2019; Accepted: 9 July 2019; Published: 12 July 2019 Abstract: In karate sparring (kumite), punches are used more than kicks to score points. Among these punches, gyaku tsuki is a very commonly used punch. The objective of the punch is to hit the target at a medium range in a very short time, producing a maximum force. In this study, we proposed the development of a novel standalone Punch-O-Meter system to measure the speed and the force generated by a punch. Keywords: gyaku tsuki; punch; karate; martial arts; force; speed 1. Introduction Karate training is divided into three main parts: kata (forms), kihon (basics), and kumite (sparring). The strikes in karate are mostly in a straight line [1] i.e., their minimal displacement makes them quick. The mass of the leg is about 20%, while that of the arm is just 5% of the total body weight [2]. This difference in mass is why punches are easier to aim but are less powerful as compared to kicks. In competitions, scoring precise points quickly is more emphasized than delivering powerful blows. Hence, punches h play a very important role in the karate kumite arsenal. Gyaku tsuki, also known as the reverse punch, is the most frequently used punch in karate competitions. The objective of the punch is to hit the target at a medium range in a very short time, producing maximum force.
