What separates us is not nearly as important as what brings us together; Style divides but kata unites! It is the common thread which weaves together the fabric of this tradition. Therefore, let us better understand kata and the mechanism which makes it work. In doing so the barriers that divide us, disappear. When it comes to understanding the mysteries of kata, we're all in this study together.
On Ko Chi Shin Study the old, understand the new
If you're looking for progressive mentorship, while not losing any of the value of tradition, nor adversely effecting the cosmetic appearance of your style, perhaps KU concepts are for you.
If you have an interest in starting a Study Group, please contact us through our contact page or Hanshi Patrick McCarthy directly, c/o bujin@koryu-uchinadi.com
KU’s unique system of application practices bridge the gap between kata and kumite and can enhance the depth and value of any curriculum without adversely effecting the cosmetic appearance of one’s style. — Patrick McCarthy
