Okinawan Goju Ryu

Okinawan Goju Ryu We teach Goju Ryu, a traditional Okinawan style
of karate with an extensive history. The term Goju Ryu means "hard-soft style". It refers to closed hand techniques (hard) and open hand (soft) techniques, as well as circular movements. The basic goal of Goju Ryu
is self-defense. It is primarily a stand up form of martial arts that teaches how to block by using angles and then subdue attackers with hand and
leg strikes. This art form also teaches some take downs, which tend to
set up finishing strikes.As with all other karate styles, Goju Ryu utilizes
a combination of punches, kicks, blocks and effective countering.
Goju Ryu is a very practical style encompassing many drills, techniques and applications often missing in many other styles of karate. Basic techniques (kihon) are fine-tuned through repetition, including performing katas (forms) and light sparring (kumite).
