ABOUT OUR KARATE SCHOOL
As with most traditional martial arts, Karate seeks to develop the character and esteem of its students. The individual practitioner (Karateka) shall develop respect, humility and learn to control calm and temperament. This is the true essence of martial art, thus called Karate-Do. Consequently a true follower of Karate-Do should strive for perfection in both philosophical and physical aspects of the art.
Traditional Karate also shares the ultimate aim with Budo, which is to cultivate great human character of higher class that prevents violent attacks before an actual fight occurs.
Our Dojo follows strictly all principles mentioned here.
