KARATE<\/span><\/h1>\n

Karate is a Japanese form of combat techniques. No weapons are used, only hands and feet.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>It is an attack and defense method which relies exclusively on the natural abilities of the human body.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/colgroup>\n\n\n
\"karate<\/td>\nThe origin of Karate<\/b><\/span><\/span>\n

The first traces of hand and feet techniques appeared in China in the 6<\/span>th<\/span><\/sup> century.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Later, these techniques were found especially in Okinawa, an Island south of Japan.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Okinawa was the meeting place of Japanese and Chinese influences. The Chinese developed what is called Okinawa-Te. The two masters of that period were: Ankoh Itosu (Shorin Ryu) and Kanruo Higaonna (Shorei Ryu)<\/p>\n

In the 17<\/span>th<\/span><\/sup> century, all forms of weapons were banned in the region of Okinawa.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

To defend themselves, the inhabitants used self-defense techniques called <\/span>\u201cte\u201d <\/b><\/span>which come from Chinese Martial-Arts. Later the masters of this new style called it <\/span>\u201cKarate\u201d <\/b><\/span>which means: <\/span>\u201cempty hands \u201c<\/b><\/span>or <\/span>\u201cChinese hands.\u201d<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The word karate<\/i> is a combination of two kanji<\/i> (Chinese characters): kara<\/i>, meaning empty, and te<\/i>, meaning hand; thus, karate means “empty hand.” Adding the suffix “-d\u014d” (pronounced “daw”), meaning “the way\/path,” karate-d\u014d, implies karate as a total way of life that goes well beyond the self-defense applications. In traditional karate-d\u014d, one is supposed to compete and strive to excel against him\/herself.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/colgroup>\n\n\n

Master Gishin Funakoshi (1868-1957) <\/b><\/span>Created his own style: <\/span>Shoto Kan<\/b><\/span> in 1916<\/span><\/span>\n

In 1922, Master Funakoshi impressed the Japanese with his art, recognizing him as<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
