Koryu Uchinadi Kenpo-jutsu
Koryu Uchinadi Kenpo-jutsuis a modern interpretation of Okinawa's historic combative-like disciplines. A completely systematized, cohesive and coherent method of learning/teaching, delivered in a traditional atmosphere, honouring both its culture and pioneers.
Koryu Uchinadi Kenpo-jutsu can also be learned/imparted as a provocative alternative to conventional methods of physical fitness and stress management. Learning how to respond dispassionately to unwarranted aggression requires self- empowerment. Such training promotes an inner-calm and, where conflict exists, helps restore balance to personal and professional relationships. Koryu Uchinadi is a non-competitive, totally application-based defensive practice, punctuated with moral philosophy and highlighted by introspective teaching as a comprehensive single study.
The Japanese Shodo (brush art) exemplifies the Japanese concept of “Bun Bu Ichi” or the Pen and Sword in Accord meaning that one must balance physical training with scholarly pursuits to be well refined. The Chinese pictographs under the brush art read Koryu Uchinadi (Old Style Okinawan hand)
