Hello

Just a quick hello to get the ball rolling or perhaps "the session started".  This blog is about and around Traditional Karate. Or at least what i think is traditional karate as i am sure you will have your own view.

So what do i mean traditional karate?  If you look at Karate as a whole it doesn't really have a long history.  In fact, modern day karate is barely 100 years old!  A fact that surprised me when i first learned to tie that damn knot in my sparkling white belt. In such a short space of time it appears to have gone through many changes.  In fact the factions or should i say "schools" of karate that have emerged in less than a 100 years is amazing as it is fascinating. 

Anyhow, as i said, this is just getting the ball rolling for this blog......I hope to share my views, thoughts, experiences as well other things "Karate" that you may find interesting..


Bye....
