Okinawa te - "Okinawa hand" style of Ancient Okinawa The "Sindo Ryu" - "way of truth" school the most secretive and by far the most violent Karate society was the highest achievement of this Karate style.
Кarate - like in films and legends, but in reality Ancient Okinawa Тe - one of the most secretive and violent styles of karate, bouts are real full contact, protective equipment is not used, and
there are neither fighting rules nor weight categories. The main advantage of the training sessions is the esoteric knowledge of the Ko-Ryu (old school). Knowing the methodology of the training courses - within one year you can work in full-contact without any risk of injuries. In other styles when they have tried full-contact fights there have been serious injuries. The reason is quite simple: development of the muscular structure, the ability to take a blow, and the main method is the practice of Kata. The system of fighting movements, like notes and scales in music, which includes all the main actions and movements existing in the style. The person performing Kate leads a meditative fight against several adversaries, attacking at the same time, being of various sizes and styles, and having different techniques for the use of blows and weapons. Kata reconstitutes the conditions of a real fight, and makes you react subconsciously. As a result an automatism of movements and reflexes takes place. Unfortunately even in Japan the understanding of Real Karate has been devaluated. Tens of lighter styles have been created. In Okinawa Te there is a code of rules, one of which states: "The karate disciple must never use his knowledge in martial arts on the street”! Anybody can use them in any way. It all depends upon their level of sanity. The teaching of martial arts is not the main goal of Okinawa Te, the main goal is self-understanding and the attainment of the highest law of existence, the perfection of the soul. Gymnastics is a very beautiful sport, but in a real fight such skills are of little or no use. Unfortunately as for the Black Belt it has no real meaning anymore. The understanding of belts itself has been totally devaluated. There have been guys who studied Sindo Ryu for one to one and a half years, that went on to other schools, and then appeared six months later with their Black Belts. In our school a disciple can take only the 6th Kyu Orange Belt test having studied with us for at least a year and a half. He has to master the essential quantity of know-how for his level, as for what goes on in other schools. As far as effectiveness is concerned none of them can touch Okinawa Te.
