Karate is a martial art and system of self-defence that originated hundreds of years ago in Okinawa, but was generally influenced by an even older tradition from China. “Karate do” means “way of the empty hand” referring to the way its practitioners use no weapons to defend and attack, but only hands feet and body. Karate is founded on a grand philosophical and spiritual tradition based on Bushido and Zen Buddhist principles. Through hard training and practice, karate develops not only the body, but also the mind and character.ETHOS SHOTOKAN KARATE CLUB is affiliated to the Japan Karate Association, the world’s largest and most prestigious karate organisation.
