Shoryn Ryu karate, Kyudokan. Mazato Higa

 

Shorin Ryu or Young Forest Style is the first created system in Karate. Sokon "Bushi" Matsumura gave an identity to the old forms of Ti practiced on the island of Okinawa and took for it the Chuan Fa forms brought from the mainland (China).

Thus was born a long line of Masters of this system fast, dynamic and strong system.

A direct successor of this ancient lineage, the late Dai Sensei Yuchoku Higa, known as "the strong fist from Okinawa", founded his Dojo as Kyudokan.

His nephew, Sensei O. Mazato Higa, 9th Dan, is currently in charge of spreading the Kyudokan School all over the world.

His Karate is explained and developed with such clarity that it can be said it has become a "scientific Karate". Accompanied by his student and representative at the Iberian Peninsula, Renato Graziosi, 6th Dan, Sensei Higa shows on this DVD the excellence of a Style and a Karate School which keeps the Tradition and Spirit as valid as when it emerged.
