About
Gichin Funakoshi
Karateka build physical, mental and spiritual strength using kihon (basic blocks, punches and kicks), kata (forms) and kumite (sparring and self-defense) that were developed and modernized by Gichin Funakoshi - techniques that build strength, flexibility, endurance and focus. We incorporate techniques from Okinawan karate, jujitsu and aikido wherever they enhance our effectiveness. Our students aspire to the highest standards of performance to first maximize their effectivness and then to move beyond merely practicing the physical to living the art. We never compromise these standards and we constantly seek ways to accelerate your learning
