SHOTOKAN KARATE

literally, the house of pine waves, is a school of karate, reflecting the style of the initial students (including his son, Yoshitaka) of master Gichin Funakoshi (1868-1957). “Shoto” was the pen name Gichin Funakoshi used in his poetry, which means “pine waves” ([1], pg. 85), while “kan” means house. Hence “shotokan” was the name of the hall where he trained his students. Training is usually divided into three sections: kihon or “basics”, kumite or “sparring”, and kata (forms or patterns of moves). Shotokan techniques in kihon and kata are characterised by deep, long stances which provide stability, powerful movements and also helps strengthen the legs. Strength and power are often demonstrated instead of slower, more flowing motions. Learn More…
