Shorin Ryu Kyudokan Karate-do & Kobudo - Newcastle, Australia

Shorin Ryu Kyudokan Karate-do & Kobudo - Newcastle, Australia We teach traditional Okinawan Karate handed down by the forefathers of karate in Okinawa. Kyudokan Higa-te School is headed by Grandmaster Oscar Higa.

Classes: Saturdays 4.30 pm - 5.30 pm at Lambton Anglical Perish Hall, Lambton We teach traditional Okinawan Shorin Ryu Karate handed down by the forefathers of karate in Okinawa, Japan, the birth place of karate. Kyudokan Higa-te School is headed by Grandmaster Oscar Masato Higa (10th Dan - Hanshi), nephew of late Yuchoku Higa O'Sensei, the founder of Kyudokan. Kyudokan Higa-te school is based on

the following principles;

~ Mi-wo-Mamoru (protecting the body)
~ Marumi Muchimi (circularity and continuity)
~ Yin-Yang (principle of duality)
~ Kokyu (deep abdominal breathing)
~ Gamaku/ Work of Hara (Generating power through the circular work of the hips and core strength)
~ Chakugan (Awareness and prepardeness)
~ and Ki (Energy generation from inside to outside)

Kyudokan is traditional school, yet we believe in continuous research on body dynamics and improvement of the technique. Kyudokan's advanced principles allow a person at any age to begin their training with their own abilities and limits. The Okinawan art of weaponry is called Kobudo. We teach bo (6 foot staff) and sai along with karate for those who are interested. Separate kobudo classes can be also arranged to those who are interested only in Kobudo. This can be useful to students and instructors practicing other karate styles to improve themselved with the addition of kobudo into their training. Sensei, Indishe Senanayake Sensei (5th Dan- Karate/ 3rd Dan- Kobudo) was appointed as the Representative and Chief Instructor for Australia of the World Shorin Ryu Kyudokan Higa-te Federation by Grandmaster Oscar Higa. He has over 25 years of experience in Shorin Ryu Karate. Contact: [email protected]
