KARATE DO

 

 

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 Karate-Do India believes practicing Karate-Do with true BUDO spirit.

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.”

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 &  AIM, but at the same time enough strong to deal with powerful adversaries.
