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. -

Shoto Ryu Karate Kai Association History Rules and Grading Syllabus
SHOTO RYU KARATE KAI ASSOCIATION HISTORY, RULES & GRADING SYLLABUS Master Vivian Nash 8th Dan FOUNDER OF SHOTO RYU KARATE KAI ASSOCIATION 1931 - 2009 Viv, as he liked to be known (outside the dojo), was born in Radstock, near Bristol, but his family settled in Plymouth when he was around five years old. BOXING Viv spent much of his life practicing and studying physical activity, and fighting arts. His mother had a theatrical background and encouraged Viv to explore the rhythm and harmony of music and dance. His father, a keen amateur boxer, taught Viv to box to a high standard. It is perhaps this positive encouragement, from a very early age that put Viv on the path to become the martial arts master and perfectionist that he certainly was. Viv was successful in the Amateur Boxing Association and during two years of National Service in the Army he became Middle-weight Battalion Champion. He also boxed in fair ground booths and often said that his boxing experience underpinned the physical side of his early karate practice. ‘I fought in many competitions, winning most of them. Later I boxed in fairground booths for £3 for three rounds; in those days, I liked to fight very much. I believe that boxing certainly helped the physical side of my karate.’ However, whilst in the army he was involved in a fire accident and was badly burned, thus ending his boxing career. While in the army he served in Suez and during his off-duty hours would spend many hours in the library, reading about many different religions. -

Some Thoughts on Kata Niseishi and Goju Ryu By Stephen Hampsten The kata Niseishi, also called Nijushiho, is usually translated as “24.” I learned this kata around 1987 from my first karate instructor, Jim Knoblet, who, at the time, was teaching a Shorin Ryu-related style called Shobukan. Shobukan is a minor style taught primarily in Sasebo, Japan, near the US Naval base, which is where Jim’s teacher, Bruce Lisle, trained for 14 years. -

Los Orígenes De Los Kata De Goju Ryû Shisochin
Los orígenes de los kata de Goju ryû Shisochin Dan Djurdjevic Miyagi Sensei. Shishochin bunkai Kenshinkan dôjô 2013 Shisochin comienza con tres posiciones sanchin dachi, esto, en principio, la hace semejante a los kata del Grupo H. Sin embargo, se aparta del Grupo H en casi todo lo demás: el kata es “simétrico” y contiene una alta proporción de técnicas “suaves”. Más aún, la apertura se hace ejecutando golpes en nukite. Aunque se dice que los kata del Grupo H se practicaban originalmente con las manos abiertas, es más probable que, al igual que ocurre en Uechi ryû, la técnica de nukite se ejecutara con la palma hacia abajo -apuntando ligeramente más abajo de la tetilla del atacante- no con la mano en posición vertical dirigida al plexo solar, como ocurre en Shisochin. Esto apunta a que Shisochin puede provenir de una fuente diferente a la de los kata del Grupo H y de la misma fuente que otros katas, como: Saifa, Seiyunchin, Sepai, Kururunfa. ¿Pero cuál es esa fuente? Como dije en la segunda parte de este artículo, Shisochin debía de existir en Okinawa antes de que Kanryo Higaonna viajara a China: hay un registro escrito de Seisho Aragaki ejecutando un kata llamado Chisakuin en una demostración realizada en 1867. Seisho Aragaki fue, por supuesto, el primer profesor de Kanryo Higaonna. ¿Podría haber enseñado Kanryo Higaonna el kata Chisakuin/Shisochin a Miyagi Sensei como un kata separado del programa? ¿O, quizá, Miyagi Sensei rescató formas que le enseñara su primer profesor, Ryuko Aragaki?, quién seguramente había conocido las formas de Seisho. -

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.
