MIAMI BEACH KARATE
SHOTOKAN KARATE-DO
Shotokan Karate is one of the oldest and most traditional branches of martial arts. It is not just about fighting but about working together to help one another grow. The teachings center around the Dojo Kun, or code of the dojo, which emphasize perfection/ development of character, continual effort to improve and to understand the teachings, develop respect for others, and learn to restraint from violence.
As Master Gichin Funakoshi expressed,"without respect we are no better than animals learning to fight."
“What you have been taught by listening to others’ words you will forget very quickly; what you have learned with your whole body you will remember for the rest of your life.”
— Gichin Funakoshsi
