At ZSKI, we concentrate on the development of each &
every KIHON (Basics) with proper form, balance, power, speed &
alignment because KIHON is the foundation of Karate-Do. Mastering in KIHON
leads to excellence in the KARATEKA (Karate Student) & the secrets of
Champions is also the mastery in KIHON. Through rigorous and extensive
training in KIHON one improves his KATA (Technical Pattern Set) as well as
KUMITE (Sparring). The training should be linked e.g. If you improve KIHON
your KATA will be excellent and if your KATA is
excellent then your KUMITE will be near flawless.
We also impart training in JIYU KUMITE (Free Sparring) along with Sport
Karate-Do because we feel that SHIA (Sport) techniques aren't effective on
the street when life is at stake. At that time one should be prepared for
JIYU KUMITE mentally & physically to tackle any kind of situation. This
is how a small and weak person becomes
strong & defeats a bigger and more powerful adversary than him. One
thing we should never forget is that when a person joins Karate-Do training
his main aim is to learn a martial art for self-defense..
Rigorous, extensive & diligent training is a link joining the physical
to the mental & the mental to the spiritual. It should be borne in mind
that the true essence of Karate-Do is that it is a martial art first and a
sport afterwards.
Zanshin Shito-Ryu

PHILOSOPHY
From the very ancient times man has had to face and deal
with danger because he was under constant attack from his environment,
animals as well as other human beings. The struggle for him to defend
himself and the struggle for survival made it necessary for him to defend
himself. Thus gradually evolved what we know fighting techniques at first
they were crude attempts at hitting back but later came the first masters
who gradually laid down a few rules of combat. These rules gradually become
more sophisticated under the inspiration and experience of the masters.
In today world the danger to man is not so much physical as emotional and
intellectual. Today man has realized that the real threat to him comes from
within himself and martial art came into being. Though outwardly it retains
its physical expression and hitting out, the main focus is internal as the
martial artists today have rightly pointed out, the enemy is really within
oneself. Hence the stress on discipline and hard training are all directed
towards the development of the self by enhancing the positive values and
eliminating the negativity residing inside us.
Martial art teaches us that brute force though apparently strong can be
over come by the greatest strength the martial artist has in him, as his
confidence. This is confidence is developed by rigorous training and strict
discipline in following “THE WAY”. Real confidence also
inspires good humility and good moral values.
Eg. Facing adversary Karate teaches us to take
“Kamae” on guard position in
preparation for fight. This “Kamae”
is internalized by the martial artist against its own weakness to overcome
them.
“Thus one becomes a martial artist in the truest
sense of the word.”

BELT SYSTEM
Karate-Do belt level shows the progress, knowledge,
experience & standard of a Karate-Ka. The belt system is from light to
dark colour its like when a student comes to
learn Karate-Do he/she is a white belt (plain) and when he/she progresses
in the art his/her knowledge becomes darker & darker in the art (more

Children
|
We are
aware that the children have lots of energy, which should be used properly
in their development. We have often seen that children imitate martial
art films of Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee or demonstrations of martial arts on
television through the various serials and cartoons. If a child shows an
interest in martial arts there are no. of questions which come to
one’s mind, which can be as follows: -
Q. A) Should a
parent enroll them in a martial arts training program?
Q. B)
Is it worth training in martial arts?
Q. C)
Will he/she become violent after receiving training?
Q. D)
Will it affect their physical growth?
The
answer are as follows: -
Answer A) Of-course parents
should enroll their children in a martial art training
program because whatever the movie indicates doesn’t
show the real aspect of Karate-Do.
Answer B) It is worth training
in martial arts like Karate-Do because one develops a strong physical as
well as mental ability.
Answer C) No they will not
become violent after training in fact they will develop a sense of
responsibility and care for others.
Answer D) Karate-Do training
doesn’t affect anyone adversely in anyway in his or her physical
growth in fact it will help in the growth of your child.

Karate-Do teaches one to live a life of HONOUR, DEDICATION, PRIDE, SINCERITY, TRUTH, PEACE

deal with powerful adversaries. Dealing with powerful adversaries one
should be able to take one’s enemy in one single blow and this is
only possible if you have power, speed, focus, control. But Karate-Do
training lies beyond. The physical are only part of the practice.
Karate-Do training combines the body, mind and
spirit which means physical with mental and mental to spiritual.
We teach traditional and Sports Karate-Do as well as kickboxing training
depending on the candidate's interest. Karate-Do training helps one to
build their physical with mental which leads to development of character
