  • Premier Karate Course, Leigh Sports Village, 18 Th October 2009
    Premier Karate Course, Leigh Sports Village, 18 th October 2009 Mention of the town of Leigh –if it is known at all– suggests images of old Lancashire. Situated to the west of Manchester, coal, Rugby League, cloth caps and cotton are the dominant images. All these motifs remain in the modern Leigh, but in a form that would be far from familiar to the town’s inhabitants from its industrial past. As one approaches the town on the A579, its undulating rollercoaster surface is testament to the subsidence of earlier mining activity. Rugby league continues to wield an important influence, but with a very contemporary feel. The old rugby club has undergone a dramatic facelift in the form of the brown-signed “Sports Village” with modern facilities, not only for the 13-man game, but also for racquet sports, swimming, aerobics and, of course martial arts. My first sight of a flat hat then was not on a middle aged man with a whippet, head bowed against the Lancashire rain. In fact as I pulled into the car park of the Sports Village the dapper figure of 9-time World Karate Champion Wayne Otto, replete with stylish corduroy flat cap, was disembarking from his car. As for cotton, the sight of 150-odd white canvas karategi greeted me as I entered the main sports hall. English National Coach Otto was one of four instructors teaching on the inaugural Premier Karate Seminar. A student of Terry Daly from the Okinawan style of Uechi Ryu, Wayne was joined by three other luminaries, each from a very different style and background.

  • 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.

  • Kei Shin Kan Karate-Do Information Booklet KEI SHIN KAN KARATE - DO
    Kei Shin Kan Karate-Do Information Booklet KEI SHIN KAN KARATE - DO Background and history Kei Shin Kan Karate-Do is a Japanese form of the martial art of Karate. It arrived in Australia in 1971 and has branches in Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland and Tasmania. The founder of Kei Shin Kan is Master Takazawa who was given a dojo by his teacher (Master Toyama) in 1958. Master Takazawa still lives in Nagano Japan. The head of Kei Shin Kan in Australia is Shihan Uchida in Sydney. The benefits of Karate There are many benefits from studying Karate, including : Learn self-defence and how to avoid dangerous situations Improve mental discipline and patience Improve strength, fitness and flexibility Meeting and socialising with a friendly group of students. It is likely to take many years for a normal person to achieve a high standard although students may progress faster depending on their dedication to training. While it is not realistic to set a particular time-frame to achieve black belt level, it is unusual to reach this level in less than 5 years. Again, the speed of progression varies with each individual. The syllabus Much emphasis is placed on learning proper basic techniques including stances, punches and blocks. These movements form the foundation of Karate practice. Sparring is introduced gradually starting with restricted sparring such as one-step sparring. As skills improve other sparring practice is introduced including three-action sparring, hands-only sparring and eventually free sparring. Safety in sparring is paramount. All sparring is strictly non-contact and protective equipment is worn also in case of accidental contact.

  • Los Orígenes De Los Kata De Goju Ryû Seiyunchin
    Los orígenes de los kata de Goju ryû Seiyunchin Dan Djurdjevic Teruo Chinen Sensei. Seiyunchin kata Kenshinkan dôjô 2013 En su libro “Okinawan Kempo”, Choki Motobu Sensei menciona a Seisan, Seiunchin y Naihanchi, como katas existentes en Okinawa mucho antes de que Kanryo Higaonna Sensei viajase a China: Escribe: “Entre los estilos, o katas, que se han practicado en Ryu Kyu desde los tiempos antiguos tenemos: Sanchin, Jo-Ju-Shi-Ho, Seisan, Seiunchin, Ippakku-Re-Hachi, Naihanchi (Ichidan, Nidan, Sandan), Passai, Chinto, Chinte, (estilo de yari -lanza- de bambú), Wanshu, Rohai y Kusanku. Y, especialmente, estos tres: Naihanchi, Passai (Dai y Sho) y Kusanku, ampliamente conocidos por muchos isleños. Como indiqué anteriormente, Ryu Kyu Kempo Karate viene originalmente de China. Sanchin, Jo-Ju-Shi-Ho, Seisan y Seiunchin se han practicado durante muchos siglos.” ¿Es el Seiyunchin de Miyagi el mismo que el de la forma original de shorin? Nunca lo sabremos con certeza. El Seiyunchin de hoy día parece tener los suficientes elementos de Naha-te como para sugerir que tiene modificaciones hechas por Miyagi Sensei. Tiene, ciertamente, un patrón equilibrado en el uso de las manos (derecha/izquierda) al igual que el Naihanchi, aunque es importante remarcar que a este respecto sigue el patrón distintivo del Grupo M, más que el usado en Naihanchi. Seiyunchin kata Es imposible determinar cuánto del “original” Seiyunchin existe en la creación de Miyagi y cuánto tiene de otras técnicas okinawenses o chinas, con las que Miyagi pudiera contar. Quizá lo único constructivo que podemos hacer es examinar otros kata que contengan elementos observados en Seiyunchin con la esperanza de que nos muestren alguna luz en cuanto a los orígenes de este kata.
