Karate
Karate is a Japanese martial art whose physical
aspects seek the development of defensive and
counterattacking body movements
The word karate is a combination of
two kanji (Chinese characters) kara, meaning
empty, and te, meaning hand thus, karate means
"empty hand."

Karate
If karate had to be described in only one
sentence, then the most suitable one may arguably
be "You never attack first in karate."
This is a maxim of Gichin Funakoshi (1868-1957),
the Okinawan who brought karate to Japan in 1922,
and who is accepted as the father of modern
karate.

"True karate is this that in daily life one's
mind and body be trained and developed in a
spirit of humility, and that in critical times,
one be devoted utterly to the cause of justice."
Shotokan founder Gichin Funakoshi

Shotokan Founder Gichin Funakoshi
Sensei Gichin Funakoshi is known as the Father of
Modern Day Karate and is probably the best known
name in karate history.
He was born in the city of Shuri on the island of
Okinawa in 1868 and by the age of 11, Funakoshi
was training with the great Okinawan teachers
Anko Itosu and Yasutsune Azato.

Shotokan Founder Gichin Funakoshi
By the time Funakoshi was an adult he excelled in
karate, so much so that when the Crown Prince of
Japan, Hirohito, visited Okinawa, Funakoshi was
chosen to performed a demonstration for him.
Sensei Gichin Funakoshi earned the title
the Father of Modern Day Karate in a number of
ways. One was that he adapted the training
methods so that they could be more easily
practiced by everybody, regardless of age,
ability or sex.

Shotokan Founder Gichin Funakoshi
In 1955, Sensei Gichin Funakoshi made another
momentous contribution to the karate world when
he was instrumental in founding the Japanese
Karate Association (JKA).
On April 10, 1957, the Ministry of Education gave
official recognition to the JKA, and it became a
legal entity. A mere sixteen days later, at the
age of 89, Master Funakoshi passed away.
