2 Full Days Of Traditional Okinawan Martial Arts Training

Open to all martial artists who would like a deeper understanding of
Traditional Okinawan Fighting Arts

This seminar is open to all Seibukan students and any martial artists who would like to experience the Traditional training methods of Okinawan Shorin-Ryu Karate & Matayoshi Kobudo.

There are many myths about these ancient self-defense arts having 'secrets' or 'hidden techniques. In reality there aren't actually any secrets, and the so called 'hidden techniques' are just ones you haven't yet been shown by an experienced teacher.

This is why we have arranged for instructors with many years combined experience in Okinawan Martial Arts.

The purpose of this training is to reveal the techniques and training methods of Okinawan martial arts, and do so in such a way that no matter what system you train in, you will benefit.

For the Karate training we recommend that you be at Green Belt or above. (Experienced Yellow Belts are also welcome)

For the Kobudo training we recommend you have some experience with the traditional weapons. You will also need to bring your own weapons to train with.

Shorin-Ryu Karate

Shorin-Ryu Partner Drills
Self-Defense Applications

Shorin-Ryu Partner Drills:

Nagashi uke and kagite are defensive techniques based on the idea of "moving like flowing water."

Used in combination with natural stances (for ease of position change in continuous balance), nagashi uke and kagite allow smooth deflection of attacks with the least expenditure of energy.

Self-Defense Applications:

How to use these principles and techniques of karate for real world self-defense.Because these self-defense techniques do not rely purely on muscular strength or physical size but on efficient body mechanics, with proper cooperation they can be practiced safely and used effectively by training partners of many ages, sizes and physical abilities.
