SHOBUKAN
Shobukan is a style of martial arts that combines elements of several traditional Japanese martial arts, including karate, aikido, and judo. It was founded by Shihan Fumio Demura, a renowned martial artist who is known for his expertise in various styles of martial arts.
Shobukan emphasizes the development of strong physical skills, including striking, kicking, grappling, and throwing techniques, as well as mental discipline, such as focus, concentration, and self-control. Students of Shobukan also learn various forms, or kata, which are prearranged sequences of movements that simulate combat scenarios.
The ultimate aim of karate lies not in victory nor defeat, but in the perfection of the character of its participants.
The greatest victory is victory over oneself.
Fall seven times, stand up eight.
The sword is the soul of the samurai
